These entities epitomize the spirit of the American dream. and they speak to everything that is wonderful about our society. Small businesses represent an opportunity for those individuals who dare to dream. who take a chance. and who wish to fulfill that entrepreneurial spirit that built this mighty Nation. I find it interesting that we are giving this bill consideration in the midst of a heated immigration debate. because one will find that a significant number of immigrants start small businesses as a means to realizing the American dream. They enrich the local community while bringing in much needed tax revenue. the same revenue that helped build New York City. Chicago. and Boston back at the turn of the 20th century.
