Republican top accuses Kamala Harris of empty ‘PR stunt’ touting small business wins for administrators

Exclusive: The chairman of the House Small Business Committee slammed Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of a speech touting the Biden administration’s victory in investing in the economy and small businesses as a “PR stunt.”

Harris is scheduled to deliver a speech on small business in Raleigh, North Carolina, but Texas Republican Rep. Roger Williams said it would serve only as a distraction from the Harris administration’s dire policies. Williams, who chairs the Small Business Commission, said the vice president’s speech did nothing for struggling businesses.
