WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), incoming Chair of the Senate Small Business Committee, released the following statement after President Donald Trump announced the nomination of former Senator Kelly Loeffler to serve as administrator of the Small Business Administration:
"President Trump has made a wise choice by tapping former Senator Kelly Loeffler to lead the Small Business Administration,” said Ernst. “As a successful business owner, Kelly knows what it takes to innovate and create jobs that support American families, and I am confident that she will fight to get Washington bureaucrats off the backs of our nation's small businesses. I look forward to a swift confirmation process so that we can work together to cut the red tape, restore the American Dream for entrepreneurs, and bring accountability to a federal agency that has been reckless with taxpayer dollars.”
