To amend the Small Business Act to spur entrepreneurial ecosystems in underserved communities, and for other purposes.

H.R. 8063, introduced by Representative Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) on March 24, 2026, proposes amendments to the Small Business Act designed to strengthen entrepreneurial ecosystems in underserved communities. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having been referred to committee for consideration.

While the official summary is not yet available, the bill's title indicates it aims to spur business development and entrepreneurial activity in communities that have historically had limited access to resources, capital, and business support networks. If enacted, such measures could potentially help small business owners in underserved areas access better support systems, funding opportunities, and networks to start and grow their businesses.

The bill has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives and remains under committee consideration.
