Trump's move to gut @USMBDA threatens minority-owned businesses already facing barriers.
Last FY, it helped secure $1.5B+ in capital and support 23K jobs.

Today, Ranking Member @RepMaxineWaters released a fact sheet to educate the Trump Administration and members of the public about the @USMBDA's mission, its essential role in supporting minority-owned businesses, and its impact on economic growth. | tinyurl.com/378s7d3f

Defunding the @USMBDA is a direct attack on innovation, limiting opportunities for talented minorities to contribute to America’s progress.
This agency has empowered women entrepreneurs and underserved communities, giving them access to the capital they deserve.
Everyone deserves a shot at the American Dream—no one should have their potential stifled by policy decisions.
We must stand up and fight to protect this agency, because opportunity and progress should never be stripped away with a single stroke of a pen.

This cannot be overstated: Trump’s latest EO gutting @CDFIFund and the @USMBDA is an all-out assault on economic opportunities for minority-owned businesses and underserved areas. These entities provide resources for marginalized communities to excel. It’s shameful that Trump is only concerned with providing tax breaks to his billionaire buddies.

MBDA is the only federal agency focused on minority business growth, addressing systemic barriers by offering access to:
🔵Capital
🔵Technical assistance
🔵Market connections
Cutting MBDA would harm minority-owned businesses and widen racial wealth gaps.

We strongly oppose Trump's recent Executive Order mandating cuts to the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (@CDFIFund) and the Minority Business Development Agency (@USMBDA).
Here's why🧵

🚨 The @HispanicCaucus & @CAPAC condemn the executive order to eliminate the @USMBDA.
This agency helps minority businesses secure billions in capital & contracts, creating thousands of jobs. Shutting it down is an economic & equity disaster.

#BHM2025 @USHouseFSC Member highlight: @RepAlGreen the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Oversight & Investigations. In 2021 his bill, the “Minority Business Resiliency Act,” was signed into law, codifying @USMBDA, the only fed. agency tasked w/ promoting competitiveness of minority business enterprises, as a permanent fed agency .

The @USMBDA has been a vital lifeline for thousands of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander entrepreneurs.
