Beagle
Receives Champion of Small Business Award
COLUMBUS – State Senator Bill Beagle (R – Tipp City) announced today
that he has received the Champion of Small Business award from the
National Coalition for Capital.
The award recognizes individuals who have demonstrated strong
leadership in supporting policies that promote greater access to
capital for small businesses and entrepreneurs, specifically those in
economically distressed communities.
“Ensuring that small businesses have ready access to capital is a
crucial element to achieving economic recovery in the Miami Valley and
the state of Ohio,” Beagle said. “I am honored to be recognized, and I
will continue to support the entrepreneurs who create jobs and
opportunity for Ohio families.”
Senator Beagle has introduced legislation, along with Senator Charleta
Tavares (D – Columbus) to expand Ohio’s New Market Tax Credit Program,
which provides an incentive for private investment in businesses in
low-income communities.
The National Coalition for Capital is a non-profit, nationwide
coalition of leaders supporting economic development and job creation
through long-term access to capital for small businesses and
entrepreneurs. Beagle received the award as a part of the
organization’s annual awards ceremony on August 8th in Chicago,
Illinois.
