SmallGovCon Week in Review: August 4-8, 2025

Happy Friday! I just got back from a trip to Niagara Falls and enjoyed some cooler weather up there. Unfortunately, the bulk of the country, including in the Midwest, is suffering through some heat. I think it is safe to say that we are looking forward to some cooler weather this Fall. We hope you had a great week and are staying cool in your neck of the woods. Have a wonderful weekend.
