The National Women’s Business Council (NWBC) monitors legislation with the potential to make a positive impact on women’s entrepreneurship. Councilmembers also educate Members of Congress and their staff about their findings and the thinking that has informed their policy recommendations. Results of these efforts are consistently seen in Congressional action to advance bills that carry forward NWBC recommendations concerning such critical issues as government contracting opportunity and childcare accessibility. 

The measures highlighted here demonstrate alignment between NWBC’s work and Congressional priorities.
