Reducing Red Tape for Small Businesses

In a major win for small businesses, the House passed the Small Business Regulatory Reduction Act and the DUMP Red Tape Act. Small businesses are the backbone of our communities, and it is crucial that we eliminate burdensome regulations.  Here are a few ways these bills help to reduce red tape and drive down costs:

• Prevents the SBA from issuing regulations that will increase costs for businesses
• Creates a dedicated hotline for small business owners to report overly burdensome federal regulations, empowering small businesses to hold federal agencies accountable

Protecting Our Children

As a mother and grandmother, protecting children is a top priority, which is why I voted for the Combating the Lies of Authoritarians in School Systems Act, the PROTECT Our Kids Act, and the Transparency in Reporting of Adversarial Contributions to Education Act. These bills safeguard our education system from foreign adversaries and solidify a parent's right to know what influences may be impacting their child's classroom.

D.C. Visitors

Thank you to the Minnesota Broadcasters Association for stopping by to discuss the Local Radio Freedom Act and AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act. I'm proud to cosponsor both bills that prevent raising royalty costs for local radio stations and mandate that all U.S. vehicles have the ability to broadcast AM radio.

Long-Term Care Facility Staffing Mandates Repealed

Earlier this year, I introduced legislation that would repeal provisions that required a federal minimum staffing standard for long-term care facilities. These provisions were devastating to healthcare workers and seniors, especially in rural communities. Last week, the Department of Health and Human Services announced that it will be moving forward with these repeals. This is a major victory for care facilities in Western Minnesota and across the country.
