Mr. Chairman. the amendment offered by Ms. GINNY BROWNWAITE seeks to ensure that taxpayer dollars go to small businesses that are complying with our immigration laws and not benefiting those that are breaking these laws. While currently the Small Business Administrations Act prohibits the use of funds to benefit or assist individuals that are not lawfully within the United States. this change would allow for greater accountability. Creating a liaison between the Small Business Administration and the Department of Homeland Security on this matter will increase oversight and ensure that the agencys budget is being spent lawfully. efficiently and responsibly.
