Small business is the back bone of our American economy. In the US Virgin Islands, it is even more so. We "claim" to support locals and their businesses, but actions speaks LOUDER! than words. That's why we need your support. We need you to help advocate for Tropical Pops Popsicle, owned and operated by Virgin Islander Tammy Isaac. This young sister has an innovative business and business model, plus, she buys all locally produced products. She secured a spot downtown to sell her outstanding popsicles, much to the delight of tourists and locals. She complied with all of the regulations required to obtain the location, yet, recently, she was told she couldn't be there. Is this what we call supporting local business? We need your support NOW. Add your name to the petition to keep Tropical Pops poppin'! Thank You!

There is a new administration coming in, lets see if they will do better than this administration in getting back my space in downtown St. Thomas.

THIS IS WRONG. Support our own people instead of these big corporate shops.

My kids love those popsicles. Really sad to see this happening to such a hard working woman.

Ridiculous that they keep messing with locals trying to make a honest living. Let Tammy work!

They always find a way to stop local small business growth downtown. Just ridiculous.

Tropical Pops are the best part of downtown. Why close down a local who is actually doing something good?
