One Step From Becoming Law
I’m very proud to announce that on October 1, my first piece of legislation passed the Senate floor and is on its way to the President’s desk for signature. H.R. 1390, the Small Business Joint Venturing Act, would make the federal government’s contract bidding process more cost-effective and competitive for the small businesses in our community. More info here.
