The Small Business Administration, the federal agency that helps small businesses get loans by guaranteeing or backing them through banks, would have to make its own staff sign a written statement before working on any loan. Specifically, any SBA employee involved in approving, reviewing, or setting up a loan must certify that they don't have a personal financial stake or relationship that could bias their decision, and promise to speak up if such a conflict shows up later. This doesn't create a brand-new rule out of nowhere — federal employees already have to avoid conflicts of interest — but it forces the SBA to spell out and formally document that requirement for loan-related staff, and the agency will need to write official rules explaining exactly how this will work in practice.
