PROCLAMATION

California, the 5th largest economy in the world, has more that 3.8 million small businesses operating in the state – the most of any state in the union.

Our small businesses are respected globally for their innovation and fortitude. These businesses embody the entrepreneurial spirit that drives the economy of the Golden State, collectively making up 99 percent of all firms in California.

The Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development, along with other key agencies of state government, works with the small business community to support its growth and development. This month, we reaffirm our commitment to helping California’s small businesses launch and prosper.

NOW THEREFORE I, EDMUND G. BROWN JR., Governor of the State of California, do hereby proclaim May 2018 as “Small Business Month.”

IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of California to be affixed this 2nd day of May 2018.

EDMUND G BROWN JR.
