     percent of all net new jobs;
       (2) as a result of the terrorist attacks perpetrated 
     against the United States on September 11, 2001, many small 
     businesses nationwide suffered--
       (A) directly because--
       (i) they are, or were as of September 11, 2001, located in 
     or near the World Trade Center or the Pentagon, or in a 
     disaster area declared by the President or the Administrator;

     National security purposes at the mandate of the Federal 
     Government; or
       (iii) they are, or were as of September 11, 2001, located 
     in an airport that has been closed; and
       (B) indirectly because--
       (i) they supplied or provided services to businesses that 
     were located in or near the World Trade Center or the 
     Pentagon;
       (ii) they are, or were as of September 11, 2001, a 
     supplier, service provider, or complementary industry to any 
     business or industry adversely affected by the terrorist 
     attacks perpetrated against the United States on September 
     11, 2001, in particular, the financial, hospitality, and 
     travel industries; or
       (iii) they are, or were as of September 11, 2001, integral 
     to or dependent upon a business or business sector closed or 
     suspended for national security purposes by mandate of the 
     Federal Government; and
       (3) small business owners adversely affected by the 
     terrorist attacks are finding it difficult or impossible--
       (A) to make loan payments on existing debts;
       (B) to pay their employees;
       (C) to pay their vendors;
       (D) to purchase materials, supplies, or inventory;
       (E) to pay their rent, mortgage, or other operating 
     expenses; or

       (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to strengthen the 
     loan, investment, procurement assistance, and management 
     education programs of the Small Business Administration, in 
     order to help small businesses meet their existing 
     obligations, finance their businesses, and maintain and 
     create jobs, thereby providing stability to the national 
     economy.
