Representing New York Small Businesses

I’m proud to have been asked by NYC Mayor de Blasio to serve on his administration’s Small Business Sector Advisory Council, which has been convened to help inform the administration’s efforts to restart the economy and city life. The councils will serve as critical links to disseminate information about reopening and provide guidance to shape the city’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“For us to have a strong restart and get to the recovery New Yorkers deserve, we have to do this the smart way,” Mayor de Blasio said. “These Sector Advisory Councils will provide the insight we need to successfully open our city back up and protect our people.”

I’m looking forward to supporting SBS Commissioner Gregg Bishop as I represent my community, nonprofits—and most importantly, the NYC small businesses that are the backbone of our local economy. #newyorkstrong #smallbusinessmatters #sobro

Small Business Reopening Task Force Is Underway

The first meeting of Mayor de Blasio’s Small Business Reopening Task Force is done, and the next one has been scheduled. Great stories of small business resilience, good ideas to explore, important next steps to consider. Thank you, Mayor, and Commissioner Jonnel Doris for leading the discussion. #newyorkstrong #sobro #smallbusinessmatters
