Bill information

Summary

A bill to amend the Small Business Act to codify the Boots to Business Program, and for other purposes.

Plain-language summary

This bill would make the Boots to Business Program a permanent part of federal law. Boots to Business teaches veterans how to start and run their own businesses. The program currently exists but is not formally written into the Small Business Act, which is the main federal law governing small business support. The bill would ensure the program keeps getting funding and continues helping veteran entrepreneurs. It is currently in the introduction stage, meaning it has been proposed but not yet assigned to a for review.
