Scott Brown Joins Senate Small Business Committee

Small business owners who follow U.S. politics now have a new person to either cheer for or rail at, depending on their point of view.  Today, Senator Scott Brown joined the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship.

Brown represents Massachusetts, if you’re curious, and also serves on the Senate Armed Services Committee, the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee.

As for his new role, Brown said in a statement, "Small businesses are the engines that drive our economy, and I look forward to fighting for policies that will help them grow.  During these challenging times, it is more important than ever that we implement commonsense initiatives to give entrepreneurs the confidence to expand and hire more workers."

Then Brown hinted that he’ll be able to get past political divides by adding, "I am excited to work with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to spur economic growth and put people back to work."

Let’s hope this change turns out well.
