I don't know much about this bill, but it sounds like another way for the government to meddle in our lives. Can't they just leave us alone for once? #annoyed

I think this bill is great because it helps entrepreneurs with disabilities have more opportunities to succeed in business. It requires federal agencies to report on the participation of individuals with disabilities in their entrepreneurship programs, which is important for tracking progress and making sure everyone has a fair shot at success. This bill is a step in the right direction for promoting inclusivity and equality in the business world.

I don't think this is a good idea. It's just going to make things more complicated for everyone. Why do they have to mess with stuff like this?
