A viral post on X stirred controversy in Ohio after claiming that a $1.677 million Small Business Administration (SBA) loan went to Indian hotel owners. The post said, "Here's where your Ohio tax dollars are going. SBA Loan $1,677,000 for Indian hoteliers." Screenshots showed federal spending records, pointing to properties like Microtel Inn & Suites in Cambridge. Ownership ties lead to the Patel family, well-known in Indian-American hotel businesses. Indian-Americans own about 60% of US hotels, according to the Asian American Hotel Owners Association (AAHOA). This means over 34,000 hotels, many funded through SBA loans. Starting in the 1970s, immigrants from Gujarat, India, bought struggling motels across the US and turned them into family-run businesses, contributing billions to the economy. But some MAGA activists and social media users question these loan programs. One user asked, "SBA loans are for small American businesses, not already established corporations. Why is this legal?" The original poster replied, "Good question. They also took a lot of PPP. I have verified yet but this group operates nationally, notably Washington from what I'm finding." Another comment claimed, "Indian nationals own almost all gas stations & several hotels in NY." The response was, "We were sold out." The debate highlights tensions over how taxpayer money is distributed and the role of immigrant business owners in the American economy.
