Creating jobs in Sacramento County and building an economy that works for middle class families are my top priorities in Congress. That’s why I’ve been hosting Small Business workshops to help connect Sacramento County small business owners with federal resources they can use to grow and hire. My latest workshop will be on Wednesday, September 24th.
