Veterans Entrepreneurship Act of 2026
To amend the Small Business Act to require the Administrator of the Small Business Administration to carry out a pilot program on issuing grants to eligible veterans to start or acquire qualifying businesses, and for other purposes.
This bill aims to change the Small Business Act by requiring the Small Business Administration (SBA) to start a pilot program. This program would give grants to veterans who want to start or take over a business that meets certain criteria. The goal is to help more veterans become business owners.
The bill would mainly affect eligible veterans who want to start or acquire a business. If passed, it could help them get the financial support they need to start or take over a business, potentially increasing the number of veteran-owned businesses.
HB10016 was introduced on August 3, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on Small Business for further review. No further actions have been recorded yet.
