WASHINGTON, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Alliance for Black Business (NABB)—a coalition of historic organizations including the National Business League (founded by Booker T. Washington in 1900), the National Black Chamber of Commerce (established in 1993), and the World Conference of Mayors (established in 1984)—announces its commitment to collaborate with the incoming administration of President-Elect Donald J. Trump and Vice President-Elect J.D. Vance.

"The nation's Black business community is poised to build on initiatives that previously secured millions in federal contracts and expanded opportunities in U.S. commerce activity, export and global trade. We delivered measurable results during President Trump's first administration," - Ken L. Harris, Ph.D., President and CEO of the National Business League.

NABB congratulates President-Elect Donald J. Trump and Vice President-Elect J.D. Vance on their decisive election and also expresses its sincere gratitude to President Joseph R.

"It is time to unite the Black business community and member chambers of commerce around the President's economic vision, ensuring that government resources benefit Black communities with tangible, lasting impact," - Charles H. DeBow III, President and CEO of the National Black Chamber of Commerce.

With support from over 100 Black business and professional organizations, NABB's partnership seeks to strengthen more than 3.6 million Black-owned businesses through access to federal resources, expanded trade, and global economic opportunities. Building upon accomplishments from President Trump's first term (2016-2020), NABB is committed to fostering resilience and growth within Black communities across the nation and globally.

"The nation's member Black mayors elected and appointed officials are eager to support local communities in alignment with the President's vision for economic progress," – The Honorable Johnny L. Ford, Esq., Founder of the World Conference of Mayors.

As the nation moves forward, NABB calls on all U.S. business organizations to support initiatives that enhance America's role as a beacon of economic opportunity for all communities. United, we strive for sustainable growth to "Make America Great Again" for every citizen.
