Government Contracting Now Fairer for Small Business
The NFIB reports on legislation signed today by President Bush that will level the playing field for small businesses seeking to compete for government contracts.
"The new provision, which was included in the fiscal 2005 omnibus spending bill, will allow small businesses to compete for some of the contracts that once were automatically awarded to convicts.
"'For too long unfair competition by FPI has essentially amounted to a 'closed' sign for those small businesses wanting to do work with the federal government,' said Senior Vice President of Public Policy Dan Danner. 'But this action means that small business is now 'open for business' when it comes to working for and with the federal government.'"
