economic fiber of the ,united ,states2  
,whereas entrepreneurs' willingness to  
evaluate risk has resulted in           
unparalleled contributions to this

,whereas entrepreneurship is the        
stimulus for strengthening the economy1 
advancing innovation1 improving         
productivity1 and creating new jobs2

innovation has been responsible for     
approximately two-thirds of our         
country's economic growth since ,world  
,war ,,ii2 ,whereas more than           
half-a-million new businesses are

adults were confident that they could   
start a business and #hb percent of     
entrepreneurs in #bjab used their own   
savings for startup cash1 indicating    

that the ,american entrepreneurial      
spirit remains strong2 ,whereas         
collaboration and cooperation amidst a

capitalists1 crowd-funding initiatives1

more than #gj percent of young          
,americans envision starting a business

youth who participate in                
entrepreneurship education programs

,whereas to maintain our position as a  
world economic leader1 the government1  
entrepreneurs1 universities1 and small  

and large businesses of this country    
must be united in a comprehensive effort
 to welcome and cultivate               
entrepreneurial savvy2 ,whereas         
entrepreneurship is ,america's best     
offense for economic progress and its   
finest defense against the status quo2  
and ,whereas the third ,tuesday of      
,november would be an appropriate date  
to designate as ,national ,entrepreneurs
