Ernst Gives Small Businesses a Voice in Rulemaking Process

"For too long, federal bureaucrats have ignored the concerns of our job creators and the negative impact their many rules have on hardworking small and family-owned businesses,"said Ernst. "One-size-fits-all regulations don't suit Iowa's entrepreneurs, and that's why I'm fighting to ensure our small businesses are heard and considered in future regulatory mandates from Washington."

"Small businesses in Iowa are being crushed by burdensome regulations coming from Washington. For many years, Senator Ernst has fought to reduce red tape and the compliance burdens faced by small businesses. The Prove It Act of 2023 provides small businesses with another opportunity to describe how onerous regulations will impact their ability to invest and grow. NFIB thanks Senator Ernst for her leadership to stand and fight for small businesses in Iowa," said Matt Everson, Iowa State Director of the National Federation of Independent Business.

"Senator Ernst's Prove It Act of 2023 will ensure that small businesses have a voice in rules and regulations coming out of Washington. Listening to small businesses' concerns about the impact of federal regulations needs to be a top priority when Congress considers SBA Reauthorization," said Tom Sullivan, Vice President for Small Business Policy at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. "The U.S. Chamber strongly supports Senator Ernst's work to push back against federal overreach that is magnifying the harmful impact of inflation on Main Streets in Iowa and across the nation."
