Velázquez Works To Boost Small Business Exports
BROOKLYN — Small businesses in New York and around the country may soon have additional tools to market their products abroad if Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-Brooklyn/Manhattan) has her way.
As the ranking member of the House Committee on Small Business, Velázquez recently introduced H.R. 3976, new legislation aimed at facilitating the participation of small firms in international trade.
The measure, entitled the “Enhancing Exports through Entrepreneurship Act of 2012,” creates new opportunities for entrepreneurs looking to market their products abroad.
