Washington D.C. – On Tuesday, Congressman Michael Cloud (R-TX) visited Cuero, Texas to meet with small businesses leaders and hear about the economic issues they are facing. 

While Texas remains one of the strongest states in the country for business, local leaders have still been struggling the past several years with high inflation, labor shortages, and supply chain disruptions inflicted by Joe Biden’s policies. Congressman Cloud has been spending the first stretch of August touring small businesses to give an update on what’s happening in Congress, as well as hear ideas on how we can ease some of the burden from the last two years. 

Representative Cloud released the following statement: 

“Small businesses and the folks who make them run are the backbone of our economy,” Representative Cloud said, “and they’ve shown tremendous strength during a difficult environment. Whether it’s high taxes, rising inflation, or unnecessary regulations, Washington has unfortunately made life harder for Main Street America rather than easier. That’s unacceptable. In the days ahead it’s critical that we press forward on cutting spending, easing regulatory burdens, and getting government bureaucracy out of the way so TX-27 can thrive – and I’m committed to that goal.”
