Stop Funding Rioters Act

HR 4053, the "Stop Funding Rioters Act," blocks individuals convicted of specific offenses from accessing Small Business Administration (SBA) programs. It directly affects people convicted of assaulting police officers (as a misdemeanor or felony) or committing a felony during a riot that destroyed a small business. The bill's key provision denies eligibility for any SBA assistance, loans, or programs to these individuals. This policy change modifies SBA program access based solely on prior criminal convictions related to violence against law enforcement or riot-related property damage.
