Energy

Small business owners want energy that is affordable, reliable, and American. ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï focuses federal efforts on making energy usage as seamless as possible for job creators.

Transportation

Small business owners rely on infrastructure to move their products and people. According to a recent member ballot, 90% of ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï members believe that Congress should lift regulatory burdens to reduce transportation costs of goods for small businesses.

ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï members also oppose one-size-fits-all mandates in this sector. ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï supported H.J. Res 88 in the 119th Congress, which was signed into law June 12, 2025. Prior to the passage of this bill, California’s waiver authority under the Clean Air Act enabled the state to impose a de facto electric vehicle (EV) mandate that extended beyond its borders, impacting millions of small businesses across the country. If it had not been stopped, 100% of all new vehicle sales would have been required to be zero-emissions by 2035 in over a dozen states across the country.
