21st Century Entrepreneurship Act
To allow participants in the Service Corps of Retired Executives to teach entrepreneurship at community learning centers, and for other purposes.
HB8404, also known as the 21st Century Entrepreneurship Act, proposes to enable retired executives participating in the Service Corps of Retired Executives to teach entrepreneurship at community learning centers.
