The SBA Office of Advocacy is an independent office that serves as a voice for small
business within the federal government, the watchdog for the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
and the source of small business statistics. Advocacy advances the views and concerns of small
business before Congress, the White House, federal agencies, federal courts, and state policy
makers.
President Donald J. Trump has made regulatory reform a centerpiece of his agenda and
has signed two executive orders addressing the regulatory burden faced by the private sector.
Advocacy has a unique and important role to aid agency implementation of the executive
orders. To assist in accomplishing the goals of the executive orders, the office has developed a
Regulatory Reform Action Plan.
As part of this plan, Advocacy is hosting Regional Regulatory Reform Roundtables across
the country in an effort to hear directly from small businesses about what regulations concern
them the most. This is an opportunity for small business owners and stakeholders to meet inperson with Advocacy senior staff. See below for information on the next roundtable, which is
free and open to the public.
