Senate Bill 1 creates the Small Business Growth Program and is now the first bill completed during this 2026 legislative session.
The Department of Commerce will administer the program.
It provides a funding path for businesses with fewer than 250 employees that often struggle to qualify for loans, by allowing them to apply for funds from a venture capital group – which then gets tax credits.
Sen. Patricia Rucker, R-Jefferson, urged final passage of the bill.
