ency=alpha John,

It’s National Small Business Week, and I am
deeply proud of every Oklahoman involved in owning and operating a
small business. There are over 340k small businesses alone in our great
state, employing over 700k people!

They are a vital part of our
district and state, and I hope you will join me in saluting those who
are helping to fuel our economy.

I know from experience exactly how
tenacious, innovative, and driven a person has to be in order to open
and run a small business.

Sometimes people poke fun at me for owning
a McDonalds franchise. They’ve even nicknamed me “McCongressman.” But
the truth is that I spent 10 years flipping burgers in order to save up
the money to purchase my first franchise in the restaurant system. I
worked every part of the restaurant to learn all the ins and outs, and
picked up any odd job on the side to save every penny I could. I’m so
proud of what I was able to build with a dream and an unbeatable work
ethic, and I’m proud of every American who has done the same.

I know
the grit and determination it takes to be a small business owner, and I
want to take a moment to recognize and honor all the hardworking
Oklahomans who make up our small business community this week, and
every single day.

If you are involved in a small business and
everything that entails, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Sincerely,
Kevin Hern
