Election 2016

The presidential candidates' plans for business

Small businesses all over the country are ready to grow and hire, and entrepreneurs are ready to venture out on their own — if they can just get that next loan, enter a new market, or have one fewer form to fill out. In this time of political change, the livelihood of business-minded Americans must be protected and supported in a nation that fosters growth and prosperity. Citizens have the chance to vote for a candidate that will wield immense authority over the future of American commerce. As we quickly approach the 2016 U.S. Presidential election, it is important to understand where the Democratic and Republican candidates stand on business issues.

Hillary Clinton’s Plan for Business

According to https://www.hillaryclinton.com, here’s how Hillary Clinton will make it easier to start and grow a business in America:

Unlocking access to capital. Hillary Clinton is committed to giving small businesses — and in particular, women- and minority-owned small businesses — access to the financing they need to build, grow, and hire. She will ease unnecessary regulatory burdens on community banks, which provide credit to small business owners and families looking to invest in their futures. She will support innovative new financing modes like impact investing. And she will double support for community development financial institutions and the successful State Small Business Credit Initiative, which offer crucial sources of support for small businesses across the country — particularly in underserved communities.
