Javier Palomarez, USHBC President, Endorses the Corrective Action Report Oversight and Accountability Act
WASHINGTON, D.C., UNITED STATES, August 13, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Javier Palomarez, President & CEO of the United States Hispanic Business Council (USHBC), endorses H.R.4671 - Corrective Action Report Oversight and Accountability Act:
Palomarez states: “Small businesses are the backbone of the American economy. Hispanic-owned businesses deserve an equal chance to compete for federal contracts, but federal agencies often fail to meet their targets set by the Small Business Administration (SBA) to support minority-, women-, and veteran-owned businesses. The Corrective Action Report Oversight and Accountability Act seeks to correct this discrepancy by requiring agencies to report procurement data, as well as the effectiveness of steps taken to meet SBA goals. I applaud Congresswoman Marie Gluesenkamp Perez for introducing this bill and I am committed to working with Congress to ensure that federal contracting dollars get to Hispanic-owned businesses.”
