Sestak: Use small businesses

Sestak, who is challenging incumbent Democratic U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter in the May primary, visited the Wilkes University Small Business Development Center on South Main Street to discuss his Comprehensive Small Business Job Creation Package. Sestak discussed several key components that he said were left out of recent employment legislation.

Sestak, 58, of Delaware County, also discussed his recently proposed Small Business Recovery Act.

“The bill targets urgently needed assistance at small businesses – the engine of our economy – and addresses key job-creating measures that I have long-advocated,” Sestak said. “Unfortunately, the House-passed ‘jobs bill,’ while including many important provisions, inadequately addressed small business job creation.”
