The letter is from J&L Contract Services, Inc. to a congressman, explaining the early struggles and subsequent successes of the company.

The company has since grown and currently holds several contracts with various government agencies. The letter emphasizes the importance of the 8(a) program for minority-owned businesses like J&L and requests that the program be saved.
