Mandate
Mandate Ch. 25 (SBA) — Legislation priorities: IMPROVE the SBA Act; Small Business Regulatory Flexibility Improvements Act; extend SBREFA panels to all agencies; Fair and Open Competition Act to disallow PLAs required by President Biden’s EO 14063; JOBS Act 4.0 for SEC capital-formation modernization.
Undo plan
1) Protect small-business contracting access without blanket bans that undercut local labor standards on large federal construction.
2) Pair PLA policy with small-subcontractor carve-outs if PLAs remain.
3) Support accountability legislation that is not a pretext to shrink core capital programs.
4) Advance capital-formation reforms with investor-protection baselines.
5) Verify: small-business share of federal construction awards.
