Remarks by the President on the Small Business Jobs Initiatives, 28 July 2010.
“Small businesses create two out of every three jobs in this country. So our recovery depends on them. And if we want to keep America moving forward, we need to keep investing in our small businesses. This is, by the way, more important than just our economy. It’s also about who we are as a people.”
“Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. They are central to our identity as a nation.”
The President on Small Business
“A critical component of our industrial base is formed by our small business partners, whose contributions drive innovation in the production of goods and services the Army uses. The Army has a strong record of small business partnership that consistently exceeds goals within the Department of Defense.”
