WASHINGTON, DC – The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation works year-round to provide struggling and underserved communities the tools needed for economic empowerment and sustained growth. The signing of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act will give entrepreneurs and small business owners greater flexibility to generate jobs, and infuse communities hit hard by a tough economy with much needed capital and resources.  We applaud our President and our Congressional leaders for encouraging the spirit of entrepreneurship and promoting economic community development.
