February 15, 2023

Bill would limit the scope of regulations on small businesses to state and federal law.

Texas Regulatory Consistency Act Introduced

Local job creators in Texas are relieved to see the Texas Regulatory Consistency Act introduced in the 88^th Legislature. The bill, which has been introduced by Rep. Dustin Burrows (R-Lubbock) and Sen. Brandon Creighton (R-Conroe) would limit the scope of regulations on small businesses to state and federal law. Upon introduction of the bill, NFIB State Director Annie Spilman said in part: “This year, with a recession all the more certain, the Texas Legislature must finally act to give small businesses greater certainty in the regulatory landscape. For more than five years, our local job creators have asked the Legislature to implement policies that not only stabilize our economy but allow more small businesses to grow and thrive. We hope the 88th Legislative Session delivers a victory for Main Street.” CLICK HERE to learn more about the Texas Regulatory Consistency Act.
