IMPLEMENTING THE JOBS ACT
(Ms. HAYWORTH asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, during our recess this past month, we held
a small business roundtable in our Hudson Valley. Actually, everybody
sat, transfixed--all the participants--for an hour and a half while
talking about what our small businesses need to do and what we need to
do to help our small businesses. One of the key considerations was to
ease the climate for creating jobs and growing our businesses.
I am so proud to have supported the JOBS Act with our Democratic and
Republican colleagues and with the Senate. It was signed into law, as
we all know, in March by the President. Tomorrow, in the Financial
Services Committee, we begin to review the implementation of the JOBS
Act, and I hope that we can continue to work together to make true
progress in growing our small businesses and in helping them by making
sure that the path is clear for them to grow and thrive and prosper.
This is a great example of how both parties can work together to
achieve that goal.
