-President Ronald Reagan, January 30, 1984: "Exports create and sustain jobs for millions of American workers and contribute to the growth and strength of the United States economy. The Export-Import Bank contributes in a significant way to our nation's export sales."
-Over the past two decades, the Bank has generated nearly $7 billion more than the cost of its operations. That's money EXIM Bank generates for the American taxpayer, to help reduce the federal deficit.
-Small business exporters need certainty and protection to tackle new markets, expand and create jobs. In FY 2014, nearly 90 percent of EXIM Bank's transactions—more than 3,340—directly supported American small businesses.
