Congresswoman Virginia Foxx spoke on the floor in support of H.R. 9 the Small Business Tax Cut Act. I rise today in support of H.R. 9, the Small Business Tax Cut Act, which would provide America's private sector with the resources needed to help supercharge desperately needed hiring. It's worth mentioning how this bill will benefit women since one third of the firms directly benefiting from the Act are owned by women. In North Carolina, small businesses with between one and 500 employees employ 205,494 individuals and 23,348 of those businesses are women-owned.
