The Senate Finance Committee released its version of the Big Beautiful Bill on Monday, and it includes major victories for American Main Street.

The end of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), which sunsets on December 31, would be catastrophic for America’s 33 million small businesses—the backbone of the nation’s economy.

To empower the Small Business Administration to reinvent itself into this more muscular force for small businesses, it should be elevated to full department status and fully included in the president’s cabinet. Call it the Department of Main Street Commerce. 

America’s 33 million small businesses are tuning into tonight’s presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump to see which candidate will better help their business survive and thrive.

America’s 33 million small businesses are looking for answers from the candidates about who will restore the main street economy. 

All Biden needs to do is withdraw the order he signed in his first month of office that reversed President Trump’s border rules.

One first step to help reverse runaway debt is ending free handouts of taxpayer money to foreign countries via foreign aid grants, which have reached record levels in recent years.

An explosion of flash mob shoplifting and other retail crime has become one of the biggest threats facing American small businesses. As usual, far-left public policies are to blame.

Biden is narcissistically trying to rebrand his tired and failed big government economic approach as “Bidenomics.”

Biden’s expanded IRS is about to flood Americans with 1099 forms for basic transactions over $600 that they didn’t know they had to pay tax on.

Blocking Biden’s student loan bailout process will be a significant victory for minorities and all Americans who want to fix higher education.

Extending the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is a political uniter that lawmakers of all political persuasions should be able to rally behind, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Do any activists or progressives know how hard it is to actually start a small business?

Today’s historic inflation is the chit that’s been looming due for years of fiscal profligacy and easy money that politicians have said is “cost-free.”

Americans will be hit with the double burden of Biden’s inflation and more taxes when the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions expire. Federal policymakers should support making these tax cuts permanent.

Biden has conspicuously failed to sanction Russia where it hurts, refusing to halt U.S. imports of Russian oil.

President Biden concluded 2021 the same way he started it, lying about his record. Here are some inconvenient truths that destroy Biden’s claims about his economic record.

Small Business Saturday is traditionally an opportunity to support small businesses between Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Yet given that virtually all small businesses now offer Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, it has lost some of its relevance.

Stagflation is coming. By many metrics, it’s already here. Small businesses and ordinary Americans are paying the price. Democrats reckless spending, including their pending deal on the Build Back Better reconciliation bill, would turn this stagflation problem into a crisis.

To defeat the Democrats’ latest spending bill, Americans must make their voices heard even louder than they did 12 years ago. That’s why I’ll be touring the country on a Bring Small Businesses Back bus tour.

We must set the record straight that Georgia’s law makes it easy to vote and hard to cheat. If we don’t fight back against these lies now, activists will have carte blanche to follow a similar playbook in the future.

Biden will try to claim that his government spending blowout and proposed tax increases and labor regulations will help the economy, which reached new heights under Trump.

Biden’s remarks, part of a seven-day, seven-state “Help is Here” tour to sell the recently passed $1.9 spending blowout, coincided with reports that the Biden Administration is simultaneously preparing to execute the biggest federal tax hike in 30 years.

President Joe Biden struck a chord of unity in his inauguration speech on Wednesday. “Today, on this January day, my whole soul is in this: bringing America together, uniting our people, uniting our nation,” he said. “And I ask every American to join me in this cause.”

The last thing struggling small businesses need is for the banking industry to capture relief funds meant to help them meet payroll.

Winning the Georgia Senate runoff races is the only thing preventing one-party Democratic rule and the left’s radical remake of America.

The votes of the nation’s 30 million small business owners and many of the 60 million who work for them will go to the presidential candidate who can get the economy back on its feet as fast as possible.

The nation’s 30 million small business owners are looking for the candidate who outlines the best vision for a robust, small business-led economic recovery from the Covid-19 recession.

No part of Americans’ lives stands to change more fundamentally based on who’s elected president on Nov. 3rd than their healthcare. Joe Biden supports further efforts to socialize American medicine, which would increase healthcare costs, reduce choices, and decrease quality.

Never has the standard copyright text at the beginning of a book done as much work as in Vicki Osterweil’s In Defense of Looting.

Only a Biden administration would consider shutting down the American economy again.
“I would shut it down,” Biden said in an interview aired Sunday night on ABC, before adding the weasel words, “I would listen to scientists.”

Turnout will determine the 2020 presidential election. That’s why the Job Creators Network has launched a historic and innovative  “10 for 20” campaign.

By maintaining expanded unemployment benefits through 2013, the Obama administration delayed the national economic recovery from the Great Recession in 2009. A National Bureau of Economic Research study concludes that 1.8 million additional jobs were created in 2014 once the benefit was finally cut.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe “You Ain’t Black” Biden seems to be trying to brand himself as a champion for small business.

Public officials should pivot from “flattening the curve” to “flattening the fear.” The data demonstrate that younger and otherwise healthy Americans face little risk of dying from this disease. Most people should immediately get back to living their daily lives without fear, boosting our beleaguered economy.

A reshoring of pharmaceutical production is needed now to respond to the coronavirus more than ever.
