WASHINGTON—On May 25, 2023, Congressman Aaron Bean (FL-04) highlighted Fernandina Beach veteran and small business owner Ms. Liberty Weaver at a House Small Business Committee hearing titled, “Saluting Service: Supporting Veteran Owned Small Businesses.”

“Our brave veterans represent the best of America and deserve every opportunity to excel in the nation they courageously defended. We must support our patriotic men and women as they transition from military service to the business sector and foster an environment in which veterans can start, grow, and expand their businesses,” said Congressman Bean. The contributions of our veterans in the Armed Forces and on Main Street have strengthened this nation. We owe it to our patriots—like Liberty—to ensure they have every opportunity to succeed.”

“What I am here to do today is show how a story like mine can go from a thriving small business to a hobby very quickly. Without the resources or connections to move forward we are never going to be able to take a home business to a local business,” said Breakable Hearts LLC owner, Liberty Weaver.
