Working Family Tax Cuts are restoring our nation’s great industrial communities – with new jobs, new investment, and new optimism for the future. Great to join Rep. Mackenzie last week in Allentown, PA – where families and workers are finally coming first.

Thank you, Deputy Secretary Paul R. Lawrence, Ph.D, for sharing Authentically American's story and highlight the use of the U.S. Small Business Administration's #VetBiz resources.
U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) & Veteran Entrepreneurship I came across an inspiring story about US Army Veteran Dean Wegner, who turned his military experience into entrepreneurial success. In 2017, he founded Authentically American, producing high-quality, American-made apparel while creating jobs in the U.S. He did this, with support from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), Dean accessed training, counseling, and capital that helped grow his company into a nationally recognized brand. If you’re a #Veteran, you can follow a similar path: - Start with a clear mission - Define your purpose - Identify the problem you want to solve - Put your ideas into a detailed business plan The SBA offers free Boots to Business training designed for Veterans and transitioning service members. Veterans can also connect with a Veterans Business Outreach Center (VBOC) for mentorship, guidance, and funding options. SBA-backed loans through the SBA Lender Match tool can help bring your vision to life. Never underestimate the power of community. Veterans helping Veterans is a formula for success. With focus, determination, and support from programs like SBA, Veterans can build thriving businesses while continuing to serve their communities. P.S. If you know of other stories about Veteran entrepreneurs who are great role models for aspiring business owners, please share them in the comments!
