Title: Dr. Rand Paul Passes Bipartisan National Small Business Week Resolution Date: 2021-09-22 Dr. Rand Paul Passes Bipartisan National Small Business Week Resolution September 22, 2021 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 22, 2021 Contact: Press_Paul@paul.senate.gov, 202-224-4343 Celebrating the Resilience and Achievements of Small Businesses and Entrepreneurs in Every Community of the United States WASHINGTON, D.C. – This week, the U.S. Senate passed a resolution from the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, Ranking Member Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Chairman Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD), recognizing September 13, 2021 as “National Small Business Week.” “Small Businesses across the country represent how hard work, ingenuity, and discipline can turn a dream into reality,” said Dr. Paul. “This National Small Business Week, we are reminded of the work ethic and commitment that was displayed by the nearly 30 million American small businesses.
