According to the National Small Business Association, "Congressman Edward Markey has been a
longtime advocate for small-business innovation and a leader in the
effort to improve the Small Business Innovation and Research (SBIR)
program. His ongoing efforts, along with legislation he introduced to
amend the NSBA-opposed House SBIR reauthorization bill (H.R. 2965) have
gone a long way toward ensuring a fair and reasonable path forward for
the SBIR program that strengthens true small-business innovation." read more on the NSBA website

Ocean Champions Endorses Ed Markey |

May 11, 2010
"Congressman Markey has consistently
fought against expanded offshore drilling, pressing for improved
efficiency and development of renewable energy as the best approach to
ending our dependence on foreign oil. He reiterated this position
after the BP Gulf oil disaster, while leading the charge to expose Big
Oil's inadequate offshore drilling safety practices. In addition,
Congressman Markey's ability to lead his Climate bill to passage
clearly shows his commitment to replacing offshore drilling with safe,
renewable energy. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the Waxman-Markey climate bill will also address ocean acidification, which threatens a broad range of marine species.
Elections
will play a major role in deciding the national debate over our
long-term energy strategy. For those interested in ending our
dependence on foreign oil AND mitigating future offshore oil spill
nightmares, sending Congressmen Markey... back to
Washington is an important step." - The Ocean Champions Team
