Recent concrete business-support action, but it does not specifically show support for SBA Small Business Development Centers or an expanded Growth Accelerator Fund Competition.

During National Small Business Week, Hassan and a Manchester small business owner discussed tariff-related challenges to small businesses.

This is a recent small-business-focused appearance, but it is only indirect issue attention and does not prove the specific SBA program commitment was delivered.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

The available evidence shows Hassan engaged on small-business issues and reintroduced bipartisan business-support legislation in 2026, but it does not specifically document support for SBA Small Business Development Centers or an expansion of the SBA Growth Accelerator Fund Competition. Because the promise is program-specific and the record provided does not show enactment, sponsorship, or other material advancement of those exact SBA initiatives, the claim cannot be credited as delivered or partial on this evidence alone.
