Hillary Clinton plans to make pro-small business policies a focus of her presidential bid and will spend next week in Iowa and New Hampshire to begin sharing those ideas, a senior campaign official said Friday.
Clinton sees small businesses as being at a critical post-recession moment in which, with the right policies, they can thrive, the official said, and will outline her suggestions for ways to encourage risk-taking on Main Street over what the official described as irresponsible speculation on Wall Street.
