In Florida, as well as nationally, small businesses have historically accounted for and continue to account for the majority of new job rations.
Small businesses create and sustain the jobs that fuel our economy.
They embody the spirit of entrepreneurship upon which our nation's economic framework was built. I applaud your efforts to provide increased opportunities for Florida residents. In all business sectors, small businesses provide the innovation and creativity that move our economy forward. Small businesses also afford young people the opportunity to learn crucial skills. You are a distinguished example of the positive impact of small businesses on our great state.
