WATCH: Davids Hosts Virtual Roundtable on Resources for Local Small Businesses

Representative Sharice Davids held a virtual roundtable today to discuss resources for local small businesses with representatives from the Enterprise Center in Johnson County and Kansas City Women's Business Center.

The panelists discussed a variety of small business issues, including businesses trying to switch their production to equipment needed amid the coronavirus, such as hand sanitizer and masks. They also discussed challenges with small business relief programs and the support their offices can provide businesses in navigating these programs.

"My office has heard from small business owners across the Third District who need support and relief right now. I was glad to draw attention to some of the local organizations that are also helping businesses navigate this difficult time. These businesses are the backbone of our economy – and we have to make sure they can continue to pay their workers and stay afloat," said Davids.
