Tue Feb 03 2026
This week on SBA Today, Paul and Tonya tackle:
🛂 New Citizenship Mandate—what it means for Lawful Permanent Residents (green card holders).
🏛️ Shutdown Status—the Senate passed the stopgap bill, and it's now in the House for a final vote.
⏳ The Shutdown Squeeze—a short shutdown creates a massive backlog that hits closings first.
🏗️ Permitting is a Problem—Period.
💡 The Execution Gap—Capital alone doesn't fix things. This episode is sponsored by SBA Collective — empowering community banks and credit unions to compete and win in SBA lending.
