Kerry Calls for Level Playing Field, Increase in Federal Contracts for Small Businesses
|
WASHINGTON, July 18 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Today, Senator John Kerry
(D-Mass.), Chairman of the Committee on Small Business and
Entrepreneurship, offered legislation to increase the amount of
federal contracts secured by small businesses by appointing a small
and disadvantaged business Ombudsman, or a legislative commissioner
to investigate small business's complaints of bureaucratic abuse,
within the Federal government. The legislation, the Small and
Disadvantaged Business Ombudsman Act, will also increase the federal
procurement goal for small business from 23 percent to 30 percent per
year.
