Evidence
Treasury posted an SSBCI Quarterly Report Summary for 4Q-2025 on May 12, 2026, and the page also lists a 2022-2024 Annual Report released May 4, 2026.
Hassan marked National Small Business Week by discussing tariff-driven challenges with a Manchester small business owner.
Hassan cosponsored bipartisan legislation to strengthen workforce training and business partnerships.
Assessments
SSBCI was clearly still being administered and reported during Hassan's current Senate term, which supports the 'sustain' side of the promise at the federal level. But the provided evidence does not show Hassan sponsoring, writing, or materially advancing an SSBCI extension or expansion herself, and it does not show the 'grow' component being delivered through her direct action. Her cited small-business outreach and workforce-partnership legislation are relevant to business policy generally, but they are not SSBCI-specific. Under the federal credit standard, that supports partial rather than full delivery.
