Workforce Stability, Recovery, and Support Testimony Given at Small Business Hearing

According to the SBM, “More than two years into the pandemic, small businesses are slowly rebuilding but need a vibrant stable workforce to fully recover. Entrepreneurs, especially those in under-resourced communities, need an array of support to address labor shortages and ensure employees are able to come back to the workforce.” Watch it here.
