Small Biz Clinic Next Tuesday in NB!

[SALUTATION]

Earlier this month, we saw our worst fears come to life as oil spread throughout our beautiful ocean and onto the coastline. This was of course devastating to our marine life and environment, but will also have a lasting impact on our small businesses who depend on tourism and traffic along the coast.

I am pleased to share that help is here! The federal government has responded to our request for a SBA Economic Disaster Declaration and now businesses impacted by the Orange County oil spill will have access to SBA disaster loan funds. You can apply HERE!

Need help applying? Not sure how to get back on your feet after the oil spill? I am partnering with Orange County Small Business Development Center to host a small business clinic in Newport Beach next Tuesday, November 2nd, 5-8 pm! You can sign up for a FREE 1:1 business consultation with experts here.

Additionally, anyone who has experienced revenue loss from their business or damage to their property from this disaster is encouraged to call (866) 985-8366, which is a hotline set up by Amplify and their partners to help impacted parties file claims. As the Chair of the Assembly's Select Committee on Small Business & Entrepreneurship, I am committed to helping see our small business owners through this crisis and ensuring that the liable party is held responsible for all loss of revenue caused by this disaster.
