For decades, globalist politicians hollowed out America's industrial base with bad trade deals. Under @POTUS & @VP, we have reversed the decline - once again becoming a nation of builders. Today at SBA’s National Veterans Small Business Week event, @VP recognized that small businesses comprise 70% of the defense industrial base – including over 40,000 veteran-owned manufacturers. #NVSBW26#

In FY26, the Trump SBA approved $1.3 billion in loans for veteran-owned small businesses. We approved over 18,000 contracting certifications for veteran-owned small businesses to help them engage in federal procurement. Under the leadership of @POTUS and @VP, small businesses across America are hiring and growing - creating jobs, driving innovation, and producing the American-made goods that keep our nation strong. Veteran entrepreneurs have an important role to play in that comeback story, and the SBA is proud to support them every day.

Vice President JD Vance on the Trump Administration's commitment to supporting veteran owned small businesses: "Under the President's leadership, we are going to put hundreds of millions of dollars this year and I think billions of dollars over the next couple of years, in continuing to support our veteran owned small businesses... I'd much rather rely on my fellow citizens to build and make and create the economy of the future because I know that my fellow citizens are going to be there. Not just for me, not just for my family, but for everybody in the United States of America."

Vice President JD Vance on the impact American small businesses have on our economy: “The net contributor to job growth in our country is you all. And one of the things that sets the United States apart, even from even some of our peer economies in Europe and other parts of the world, is that we have a vibrant small business ecosystem… You guys are the backbone of American innovation.”

Vice President JD Vance at the National Veterans Small Business Week kickoff: “What we care about in the Trump administration is job growth, and we care about our national security, and we care about ensuring the people who create the next generation of jobs also ensure the next generation of American national security.”

“Very grateful to Susie for her friendship and service to the president and our country. Stephen Miller is an amazing patriot and will do great things. Congrats to him on a well deserved promotion!” — Vice President JD Vance 🇺🇸
