i am so grateful to speak with you today
my name is tanya weinrice i am from
montana where i live with my husband
my hero a marine and retired police
officer
my husband and i own mountain led
espresso we are not some multinational
corporation
our success is not measured by
stockholders
but by our neighbors the people we see
at church
and at jiu jitsu school with our son
mountain mud espresso is the american
story
a story not just for entrepreneurs but
for millions of hard-working
men and women who are building their
american dream every day
a few months ago like so many businesses
we got the crushing news
a large event we were serving was
cancelled because of the virus
our business was on the brink threatened
to be shut down
from losses that were not our fault
i was scared i thought of our 50
employees
the mountain mud family and when i
thought of their jobs i thought of their
rent being due
their kids and i felt personally
responsible
i'm not too proud to admit that i fell
on my knees and prayed
lord what do i do his words ran clear
keep on working it will be okay
i had faith and let me tell you you have
to have faith when your husband is a
marine
and a police officer who is shot at on
the job
and when you run a business a little
faith goes a long way
faith in jesus and faith in america but
i'm worried we have a generation of
americans
who have been told that the american
dream doesn't exist
that's a lie i know because i live that
dream
it's why i feel so strongly that we need
a president
who believes in the american dream like
president donald trump
now more than ever i am
so thankful that my prayers for help
were answered
my company was one of the first to
receive a ppp
loan and praise god it has been a
lifesaver
not only were we able to keep every
single employee
but we've been hiring weekly ever since
i feel for local businesses across
america who are under assault from
shutdowns from riots and now facing the
terrifying prospect of joe biden
coming after everything we've built
i am so grateful we have leaders like
president trump
standing up for local businesses like
mine
thank you president trump it is exciting
to be part of the great american
comeback story
