Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) Co-Sponsoring Reaching America’s Rural Minority Business Act

A new piece of federal legislation, called the Reaching America’s Rural Minority Business Act, is being co-sponsored by Senator Tim Scott and addresses rural, minority owned businesses by offering technical assistance, training and education.

As many as ten business centers at historically black colleges and universities could be established by the Commerce Department to serve rural and beleaguered communities if the legislation is approved.
