The Small Business Administration (SBA) announced the relocation of six regional offices in cities recognized as 'sanctuary cities' as part of an effort by the Trump administration to enforce immigration laws. These relocations aim to lower costs and improve accessibility for the small business community. New office locations have not yet been disclosed. Additionally, SBA loans will not be available for businesses with owners who are not U.S. citizens. This decision comes amid ongoing political tensions over sanctuary city policies.
The Small Business Administration will relocate six of its regional offices from 'sanctuary cities' to less costly locations, aligning with federal immigration law enforcement.
No specifics on the new locations were provided, but the move is part of a Trump administration effort to address immigrant-friendly policies in certain cities.
SBA loans will be unavailable to businesses with owners who are not U.S. citizens, a policy that will be clarified in the coming days.
The relocation coincides with Congressional pushback against sanctuary city policies, highlighting a significant shift in the federal stance on immigration-related support.
