On the recordMarch 5, 1996
H.R. 994 will improve the Federal regulatory system and is the first step toward ending the Clinton crunch. For too long small businesses have been subjected to a flood of regulation and compliance costs. It is estimated that for the smallest of businesses--those with only one to four employees--the regulatory costs per employee are over $30,000. It is no wonder that so many people today feel that the entrepreneurial spirit is being choked by Washington taxes, Washington regulation, and Washington interference. Today we have the chance to do something about this problem. Today we can send a message to small business owners and those who dream one day of owning their own business. Let's pass H.R. 994 and fix the burdensome regulatory system and let small businesses do what they do best: create jobs.
