New SBA faith center and leadership
If enacted, the bill would change leadership at the Small Business Administration. It would make the Office of Rural Affairs led by an Assistant Administrator instead of a Director. It would create a new Center for Faith inside the SBA’s Office of Entrepreneurial Development. The SBA Administrator would have to appoint a Director for the Center within 90 days after enactment. The bill does not provide funding or list the Center’s duties, so any help to faith groups or small businesses would depend on later actions.
