This is the second year of the 1990s. and already there has been a perceptible shift in New York City toward greater emphasis on small business development. The city has instituted a microloan program for small business startups. Congress must show support for such local efforts. Small business made New York great. and I am pleased that the citys administration is taking steps to see that recent and current immigrants have the entrepreneurial opportunities that existed at the turn of the century. Yesterday. the Small Business Administration held their annual Minority Awards Breakfast to honor the minority winners of Small Business Week awards. This recognition is important In encouraging minority business development. but there is still much to be done.
