Small Business Administration to relocate 6 offices in so-called ‘sanctuary cities’

The U.S. Small Business Administration will relocate its offices in six sanctuary cities, including Chicago and New York City, to more accessible locations that comply with federal immigration law.
SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler stated, "We will cut off access to loans for undocumented immigrants," emphasizing a shift towards supporting only legal business owners.
Mayor Michelle Wu of Boston defended her city's immigration policy during congressional testimony, despite the SBA's decision to close its regional office in Boston.
Business advocates expressed concerns that the relocation will harm small businesses that rely on the SBA's support, calling the move a significant blow to local entrepreneurs.
