“I’m proud
to support the remarkable efforts of the Asian American Civic Association as
they expand the Asian Business Training & Mentorship Program. Supporting
AAPI-run small businesses is critical to ending poverty in AAPI communities,
closing the racial wealth gap, and building a diverse, thriving economy in our
Commonwealth. I congratulate the AACA, the City of Boston, and Kwong Kow
Chinese School for putting on the Asian Business Pitch Contest, and I wish all
participants the best of luck.” Senator Edward Markey
