Economic Development

Economic Development

Rep. Veasey was the House sponsor of SB 1618, a bill designed to increase economic opportunities for Small and Minority/Women Owned Business in the Metroplex by making contracting opportunities more accessible at DFW Airport. This Bill will allow DFW to use “best practices” in selecting firms to do business at the airport and will give them more opportunities to use small and women / minority owned businesses. The passage of this bill will level the playing field for many small business owners. Rep. Veasey is always supportive of legislation that is aimed at giving hard working entrepreneurs in his district the chance to succeed in our economy.
