every business i brought there could not do business with them.ow-up, no execution, never hitting a deadline. it's our number-one problem, is deliveries. but why, though? because we started constraining. i broke the company. you were right. i ordered a light for my house and i didn't even get it. i just couldn't continue. so about nine months into the deal, i said "larry, you're on your own." i sympathize with you, but i kind of don't give a [bleep] anymore. in the end, i lost over $1 million on my bet on larry. he's not a liar, he's not a thief, he doesn't lack integrity -- he lacks follow-through. that doesn't make him a bad person. that makes him a wonderful employee and a terrible owner. sorry. ...one of my biggest financial wins also turns out to be one of my biggest nightmares. they always refer to me as master sergeant. they really appreciate the military family, and it really shows. we've got auto insurance, homeowners insurance. had an accident with a vehicle, i actually called usaa before we called the police. usaa was there hands-on ver

and in new hampshire, over 90% of businesses are small businesses.hey employ over 50% of the workforce in the state. so, we need to support them >> i always say, too, what i think people need to realize, if they love their community, if they do not support the small businesses, the small businesses will disappear. and i'm sure you've seen that happen to quite a few communities, have you not? >> absolutely. and that's one of the challenges. and those small business folks are usually the people who contribute to the local sports teams, who are part of the local chamber of commerce, who promote the community they're in in so many different ways. so we need to support them, too. >> what are some of the favorite small businesses you love going to? >> we are a small business family. i have two daughters who started two small businesses and the other has started another one. >> what are they? >> one is a clothing business. one is a business that helps with nutrition. they do personal nutrition profiles. and i have a granddaughter who has diabetes and so her

small businesses. and the average small business owner spends over $12,000 annually just in dealing with regulations. so just for all of you, our -- are current tax policies h hindering small businesses and what would we like for women? >> i will just say there is no entrepreneur that would say no to taxes. i think that's men, women, no matter who we are. one thing i flagged that i don't think we brought up today, and i know there is a lot of discussion around child tax credits and so on. something very specific when you put a gender on business is child care. i have a three-year-old and six-year-old, and i have to make very hard and strong decisions as an entrepreneur. that is my number one cost. i think anything we can do to release that burden for mothers, the majority of women entrepreneurs do have children, and they're either doing children's care, elderly care, or caring for their community. it's just a disproportionate thing about women. that is one area that i wanted to bring up in response, is

businesses there. i often say entrepreneurs and small business owners want more than anything to have time to devote to growing their businesses. women entrepreneurs, as many of you can attest, are often working to juggle even more priorities than their male counterparts, for obvious reasons. they are negatively impacted by the time and resources that it takes to comply with our complicated and burdensome tax code along with a lot of the other arcane regulatory systems. yes, for this reason the tax rate form can and should be part of today's discussion. the national association of women business owners ask this committee to present on tax reform at their annual conference last week because that is the most important issue to the hundreds of businesswomen business owners who belong to that organization. additionally, the president and board of directors of women impacting public policy were at this desk in this very room just a few weeks ago for a bipartisan discussion centered on the need for tax refor

our system today publishes small businesses -- punishes small businesses and family-owned companies like franchisees. these are formed as llcs, escorts and partnerships. hard-working, american entrepreneurs are unable to benefit from a lower business rate, making it more difficult to compete and generate economic growth. the plan just released will change this. we are going to make it easier to start your own business and easier to be your boss. the life of a small business owner today is filled with extensions, itemization's and compex relations. billionstry, we spend of dollars and hours each day repairing for april 15. while some people benefit from this complexity, it is not the hard-working, small business owners that are here today. our goal is to make the system fairer so that all american business can succeed and local communities can thrive along with them. the people in this room are why we need to fix the tax system. we need to make it easier for small businesses and middle income families to succeed in america again. the only way we can do this and get a raise to american fam

i can't do business with you guys. i -- i can't do business with you guys.ell, when you want to do business, give me a call. that's all right! i mean, as far as that goes, there's other -- there's other people. i have a backup plan, so... i still love you, though, marcus! can we go out on a date now? [bleep] you. yes, i did go on a date with nancy. no, i did not. of course, i didn't go on a date with nancy and she asked me like three times. i don't give a [bleep]! in the case of tom and nancy, the crazy was so elevated, that their ability to even be in a room together was impossible. but there are other situations where people actually can work through their family drama. a good example of that would be courage. b, a woman's fashion brand in new york city. now the owner nicolas goureau had taken the business over from his mother when the business fell on hard times. but my issue with nicolas is that he didn't respect his mom. he was abusive, he was outspoken, he didn't really appreciate what she had built. and i knew i had to get to the root of the problem.

business is a strong voice.inesses also concerned about the much higher level of political volatility in the uk. we have a cabinet that is fairly split, a prime minister that since the election is weaker, and a resurgent labour party that has a different vision of what brexit would entail, and they will go in there today knowing that theresa may is under pressure. that is interesting, because on one hand, she has a party she has to hold together, but she also has not got a reputation for being that business— friendly. a lot of the ideas she came outwith, workers' representative on boards, looking at the size of bonuses, all that seemed to be anti—business, and one wonders whether she really is that sympathetic to what they are going to be saying. the key line we need to be saying. the key line we need to be saying. the key line we need to be aware of is that between business and voters. some of theresa may's proposals were not popular amongst business, but they were popular amongst voters, and this tension runs

so why small business? i mean, we all know small businesses create jobs, they fuel the local economy, spark innovation. that's all true. but small businesses are more than that. they are actually what makes our communities unique. it helps us define our neighborhoods. so, when you support a small business, you are supporting your friends and neighbors. they tend to hire from a local community. they tend to support local initiatives. philanthropic events. so when these small businesses thrive, we all benefit. so, at s.b.a., of course, we're here to be your small business resource. so any small business loaners out there today, know that you have the skills and talent and ambition, but if you ever need a little bit of help, s.b.a. is here to help you as well, where you need counseling, training, financial assistance, or you're looking for new opportunities such as exporting or government contracting. please remember to call upon us. but the message for the takeaway today is saturday. please go out, take your

so, what happens when we create the incentives for business to grow, to invest, new businesses to launch, people to invest in america, what happens when that occurs in an environment where the unemployment rate is very low? it sets up a bidding war for workers. there's no other choice. these places, as they grow, they need new employees to get this job done, they have to pay ever more because they're competing with another business down the road that also want to grow and invest in new plants and equipment. what we're going to do is create a biding war for workers, that means wages are going up. when wages go up, families have more take home pay. when they have more take home pay they have a higher standard of living, this is exactly how people have a chance to live the american dream. when the economy is thriving and growing at the rate that america used to take for granted, well, mr. president, i'm here to say those days are coming back. we've got work to do and we're not done by any means, i'm confident that we'll get this done and when we do, our constituents are going to live a bett

without investment it's easy for small businesses to falter. by defining the nonpublic fering exemption under the securities act, this legislation will provide small businesses with much needed clarity. and a renewed confidence in what the proper procedure is for nonpublic official. and this does not violate the law but helps to be able to grow businesses. removing this confusion will provide small business was much needed certainty and allow them to focus their resources on growth rather than on compliance. for this reason i support the measure that's before us today and i'd like to be able to encourage my colleagues to be able to do the same. i'd like to comment mr. emmer for introducing this legislation to alleviate the burdensome compliance environment that is imposed on small businesses. and again encourage my colleagues to support this legislation. thank you, mr. speaker. i yield back my time.

the third is making our business rates competitive again. the fourth is illuminating the incentives that reward off shoring of jobs and keep cash overseas. these reforms roll out everyone but especially those in this audience that benefit on both the business and personal side. we want to make a level playing field for our franchisees, domestic manufacturers and family-owned small businesses that have been forgotten by washington. we currently pass tax entities like llcs and so partnerships and a top rate of 39.6%. we are going to lower this rate to 25% and that is the lowest rate for small and medium-size businesses in over 80 years. [applause] this is money that these companies will reinvest into expanding their business and create better paying jobs and more economic growth for our country. we will do this while ensuring the safeguards exist to prevent this from being used to avoid paying taxes. american business tax rate is not only the highest in the developed world but far higher than our average economic competitor. since 1986 when we
