“During her remarks, the Vice President will announce the finalization of a Small Business Administration rule that will remove most restrictions on loan eligibility that are based on the person’s criminal record,” said a White House official, who like the others was granted anonymity to discuss internal matters.
It’s not the first time that Harris has teamed up with celebrities to highlight administration initiatives and — as White House aides concede — place a larger spotlight on accomplishments. Just last month, Harris convened a roundtable with people pardoned for marijuana offenses with rapper Fat Joe.
