Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard attended Fashion Business Inc.’s Reception and Fashion Show held at St. Vibiana's in Downtown Los Angeles on October 20, 2011. 

"Fashion Business Inc. is a great example of how technical expertise and industry know how can be leveraged to help small businesses create jobs here in Los Angeles. With the Make it In America agenda, Democrats in Congress stand ready to help small businesses lead the American economy back to prosperity," said Rep. Roybal-Allard. 

Fashion Business Inc offers targeted business education, sourcing, networking opportunities, marketing and consulting services to emerging fashion entrepreneurs and manufacturers through its resource center and business partnerships. The Fashion Business Inc's entrepreneurial, displaced and incumbent worker training programs promote new business and American job creation, and the profitable retention of workers, which in turn strengthen local economies and the overall health of the domestic apparel industry.
