Description

The National Women’s Business Council (“NWBC” or “Council”) was created under Title IV of H.R. 5050, the Women’s Business Ownership Act of 1988, as amended (U.S.C. § 7105, et seq.). Authored by Congressman John LaFalce (D-NY) and signed into law by President Ronald Reagan, H.R. 5050 established NWBC, which operates in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA).

This landmark piece of legislation also:

  • Eliminated individual state laws requiring women to have a male relative or husband to co-sign a business loan;
  • Established the Women’s Business Center (WBC) program to provide female entrepreneurs with business education and entrepreneurial support;
  • Required the U.S. Census Bureau to include woman-owned corporations in their data collection.

The National Women’s Business Council is a non-presidential federal advisory committee serving as an independent source of advice and policy recommendations to the President, the U.S. Congress (to the Committees on Small Business of the Senate and House of Representatives), and to the Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration (through the Assistant Administrator of the Office of Women’s Business Ownership) on issues of importance to women business owners and entrepreneurs.

The Council is comprised of 15 members including:

One presidentially appointed Chair

Four women business owners of the president’s party and

Four women business owners not of the president’s party

Six representatives of national women’s business organizations, including representatives of women’s business center sites. The current member organizations are:
