Policy Statements

On March 11, Small Business Majority sent a letter to House and Senate leadership ahead the consideration of a full-year continuing resolution (CR) to urge lawmakers to rather prioritize the needs of America's entrepreneurial community through the passage of a clean, short-term CR that allows Congress to work in a bipartisan manner to fulfill its duty of enacting all 12 FY25 appropriations bills to properly fund the agencies and programs that small businesses utilize to grow. 

Today, Public Policy Director Awesta Sarkash sent a letter to Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin urging him to sign SB 826, Predetermination for licensing eligibility; prior convictions. The bill would provide much-needed clarity and fairness in Virginia’s occupational licensing laws by ensuring that entrepreneurs with prior convictions are not unfairly denied a license to work in their chosen profession.

On March 5, Public Policy Director Awesta Sarkash sent a letter to the Texas House Committee on Public Health in support of HB 251, which would give Texans the ability to make informed decisions about their health based on fair and transparent price estimates.  

On February 26, Small Business Majority Colorado Director Hunter Nelson testified in support of  House Bill 25-1174, legislation that would establish reimbursement limits for prices paid to certain hospitals through the small group market, resulting in lower healthcare costs for small businesses in Colorado.
