Missouri Congressman Mark Alford on B-2 mission and “STRONG” Act for small businesses

Before President Trump ordered the bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites, planning  had been going on for over a decade.

Missouri Congressman Mark Alford told Newstalk KZRG:

“This has been some 15 years in the planning to hit these sites and it’s just an amazing feat that we’re able to pull this off to go over there, a 36 hour round trip to come back, not one shot fired at these B-2 stealth bombers.”

The B-2 stealth bombers returned safely to Whiteman Air Force Base in West Central Missouri following the attack.

Helping small businesses.  

That’s the goal of an act proposed by Missouri Congressman Mark Alford.  

”The STRONG act stands for Support small businesses with greater access to SBA backed lending. The problem is because of Joe Biden’s inflation that’s happened over the past four years.”  Alford Continued:  “Everything has gone up tremendously. And in order to get a loan to max out that loan. Right now it stands at $5 million for the SBA 7 loan program and the 504 loan program. We are proposing doubling that to $10 million. That’s going to give businesses in Missouri, in the Joplin area and really all over America the ability to borrow the money they need for the capital they need to run their business and build new components of their business.”
