Job Creators Network CEO Alfredo Ortiz Testifies in Hearing on Restoring the SBA

Alfredo Ortiz, CEO of Job Creators Network, released the following statement in response to his testimony today before the Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Regulations of the House Committee on Small Business in a hearing on restoring the Small Business Administration:

“The Small Business Administration has let entrepreneurs down over the past few years. Under the Biden Administration, it prioritized political activities such as voter registration and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion over the real concerns of small businesses.

“That changes with the trusted and proven leadership of Administrator Kelly Loeffler. The SBA now has the opportunity to restore its core mission of helping small businesses. That means ending the agency’s politicization and bureaucracy, requiring staff to return to work, and engaging in rigorous oversight and accountability. By doing so, the SBA can be restored and reinvented into the agency that American small businesses want and need.”
