U.S. Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler joins The Morning XTRA to discuss AI, fraud prevention and the future of American small businesses. She explains how emerging technology is helping businesses increase productivity and expand, and discusses efforts to support rural entrepreneurs and skilled trades. Loeffler also previews the SBA’s Million Dollar Pitch, featuring five finalists competing for funding, including Georgia’s own Winton Machine, founded by George and Lisa Winton.
Waste, fraud and abuse in government is one of the top issues I came in on day one vowing to address. I am so grateful to President Trump and Vice President Vance for their incredible commitment to this issue.
They’ve been relentless, and Vice President Vance has been out. I’ve been with him at two different stops where we’ve done massive fraud busts. And it’s not just huge amounts of fraud, it’s small dollar fraud too. There is no fraud too small to go after in the federal government. And the vice president is working tirelessly. – Kelly Loeffler
