Republicans in Congress and GOP presidential hopefuls are threatening tens of thousands of small business jobs by seeking to cut a little-known government agency that guarantees loans to help U.S. exporters, Hillary Rodham Clinton said Friday.
Clinton said during a round-table discussion at Smuttynose Brewery that Congress should renew financing for the Export-Import Bank. She argued the GOP is risking up to 164,000 jobs supported by the bank.
The Democratic front-runner said Republicans in the 2016 presidential campaign would rather threaten those jobs rather than stand up to the tea party and talk radio.

Did she takes any questions?
Was this visit including sampling the brewskies?
Smuttynose?
Uh Uhh..they said smuttynose..uh uhh uhh..
The greatest threat to small business that ever existed is the Democrat. Wherever their shadow falls, life ceases to exist.
Oh that poor little government agency that no one knows about. (And for good reason)
One more slush fund exposed for what it is.
Think Global Hou$e Bank..
If Hillary wants to help small exporters and importers, perhaps she could lead the charge to decertify and ban one of their biggest headaches: the ILWU? :)
Rounds for everybody!!!!!
Wooo Hoooo!!!
You think Bill knows how to party.
Put that pic and one of June BooBoo side by side.. Oh my.
That's true, but what will the Republicans say?
They're going to accept the narrative so they won't be called mean-old extremists and the lines will blur even more.
Haha ”Smuttynose Brewery” is the ideal place for Hillary to appear. Wonder if there is a Smuttypants Brewery for Billy Jeff to make an appearance.
How small businesses are actually helped by the Bank of Boeing? If any are, it is probably handled by the PR department rather than finance. There is even some argument that by giving foreign buyers cheap loans to buy US equipment other US companies are harmed. For example, if British Airways can buy a 747 with a lower loan rate than Delta can, it can sell seats cheaper and thus drive business from Delta.
The GOP may threaten jobs but the Democrats just eradicate them...
LOLOLOLOLOL.
No, Hillary. You and your GOP RINO’s support of amnesty is hurting
small business.
Boing counts as a small business?
Sheer bullsh*t.
The Democrats and Obama, with their punitive taxation and reams of red tape, not to mention their regressed and failing economy, are rapidly destroying American small business.
Mrs.Rodham Clinton, before your speech did you sample 12 kegs of Smuttynose beers? Never had Smuttynose beers, but I may never have it if they invited Queen Hillary the first to it.
