Jobs and Small Business: Creating Jobs, Sustaining and Supporting Small Business
As President Obama's Assistant Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), Alfonso understands the sacrifices and capital risks associated with opening and operating a small business.
He respects that small businesses account for over half of all jobs in the United States and are critical to growing the economy and creating new jobs for the 49th District.
Alfonso has consistently taken the lead in working to sustain the success of our diverse small businesses--from shops and restaurants on Columbia Pike to the retailers and merchants in Bailey's Crossroads.
Alfonso served in the Kaine Administration as a Member of the Virginia Stimulus/Recovery Act Leadership Team and organized regional economic development summits with the Governors of Virginia and Maryland and the Mayor of Washington, D.C.
