by Clint Day

While nearly everyone agrees it's vital for our nation's future, many aspiring entrepreneurs struggle with complex regulations and limited access to capital. This, despite the fact that new businesses create almost all net new jobs in the US!

The good news? Bipartisan support for pro-entrepreneurship policies is strong. Voters are eager for solutions that make starting and growing businesses easier.

Including entrepreneurs in policy discussions is crucial. Their real-world experiences can inform solutions that unlock America's entrepreneurial spirit, leading to a more prosperous future for all.
