We, the undersigned small business owners and supporters of Main Street, call on Congress to speak up against efforts to freeze federal programs that directly impact small businesses. These programs, including funding for childcare, small business loans and infrastructure projects are critical lifelines for small businesses, particularly during these challenging economic times.

With rising interest rates and the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, small businesses cannot afford reduced access to vital resources to support their workforce and communities. Cutting these programs now will hurt Main Street, threaten jobs, and weaken local economies. 

Let's not freeze main street.
