SBA chief visits Forsyth Co.

(GA. NEWS NETWORK) – The administrator for the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) says any problems created by tariffs are a short-term issue for Georgia.

WSB-TV reports Kelly Loeffler admitted this week that fuel prices and tariffs are affecting small businesses, but it will all result in long-term gains.

She commented while visiting Premier Automation in Forsyth County, where she claimed the U.S. is experiencing rising consumer confidence and retail sales.
