THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON file Newyerk 5 October 1995 grinb MEMORANDUM FOR STEVE SILVERMAN KRIS BALDERSTON CC: KITTY HIGGINS FROM: JENNIFER O'CONNOR and SUBJECT: SBA AND LONG ISLAND Is there going to be an announcement in Long Island anytime soon? If so, how much money is Long Island going to get? [ THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 18, 1995 NOTE TO: HAROLD ICKES FROM: SUBJECT: KITTY SBA and HIGGINS Long Kitty Island While you couldn't tell it from this memo, I'm assured that Long Island will indeed benefit from this SBA/DoD program. 9/27 Jennefer- Please work m this (if youre not already) (John- keep copies) - U.S. SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION ADMINISTA 1933 AND WASHINGTON, D.C. 20416 OFFICE OF THE ADMINISTRATOR SEPTEMBER 13, 1995 MEMORANDUM FOR HAROLD ICKES, DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF FOR POLICY AND POLITICAL AFFAIRS CC: KITTY HIGGINS, ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT FOR CABINET AFFAIRS MARGIE SULLIVAN, CHIEF OF STAFF, DOD FROM: MISSY KINCAID CHIEF OF STAFF triessn SUBJECT: Defense Loan and Technical Assistance (DELTA) Program Secretary to the Cabinet Kitty Higgins asked that I prepare an update on the DELTA Program. On August 10, the SBA received $30 million from the Department of Defense for the DELTA Program. This money will allow us to guarantee $1 billion in loans to defense-dependent small businesses adversely affected by defense reductions. We are working out the procedural and eligibility issues by reviewing a number of potential borrowers during this month, and will be best prepared for a public announcement in October with the benefit of that experience. In the interim, or at that time, the public announcement would be best if the President were to present a check to a borrower in California or New York, two of the targeted markets for the program. The DOD has expressed interest in participating in either a Presidential event or a separate event. Obviously, we will include the appropriate Members of Congress at any events. The targeted markets in addition to California and New York are New Jersey, Florida, Texas, South Carolina and New England. Clearly we would get significant coverage in South Carolina as this is Phil's home state, but we don't know how much this would benefit the Administration. Please contact me if I can provide further information or if you have particular guidance as to the likelihood of this as a Presidential event. printed on recycled paper THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON DECEIVE August 29, 1995 S will MEMORANDUM FOR KITTY HIGGINS on FROM: Harold Ickes H SUBJECT: DOD/ SBA small business conversion program Kitty, in your 7 August "follow-up to the Cabinet weekly report" memorandum to me, on the first page you refer to the DOD/SBA small business conversion program and state that the guidelines to try and target funds in California, South Carolina, Florida, and Dallas, Texas.
