President-elect Donald Trump has nominated former Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler to head his Small Business Administration.
The SBA was one of the last agencies without a head nominated by Trump.
“Small Businesses are the backbone of our Great Economy,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Wednesday. “Kelly will bring her experience in business and Washington to reduce red tape, and unleash opportunity for our Small Businesses to grow, innovate, and thrive. She will focus on ensuring that SBA is accountable to Taxpayers by cracking down on waste, fraud, and regulatory overreach.”
Loeffler has served as the co-chairwoman of Trump’s second inauguration committee and was expected to get a spot in his administration.
