SBA's March Web Chat Will Highlight the Recovery Act - Thursday - March 19th



The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will be the focus of discussion
for the U.S. Small Business Administration's March Web chat. SBA Associate 
Administrator for Capital Access Eric Zarnikow will help small business
owners get answers to their questions about what the Recovery Act means for
the 
nation's small businesses. 

The Recovery Act is a national effort to grow the U.S. economy by
stimulating job creation, freeing credit markets, and investing in small
business. The Act 
contains a package of loan fee reductions, higher guarantees, new SBA
programs, secondary market incentives, and enhancements to current SBA 
programs that will help unlock credit markets and begin economic recovery
for the nation's small business sector. 

SBA is working to enact the new programs created by the passage of the bill
and make changes to the programs already in existence. Additional 
information on the Recovery Act is available online at
