This change aims to help these businesses secure financing, though some specific loan types would not qualify.

This bill would let U.S. territories and commonwealths, such as Puerto Rico and Guam, send statues to the National Statuary Hall Collection in the U.S. Capitol. Right now, only states can do this.

This bill would officially name the USDA Rural Development office in Guam and the Western Pacific. It would serve as the main contact for several Pacific territories and Freely Associated States.
