Reduce the regulatory burden on small businesses by simplifying federal reporting requirements.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Small Entity Update Act?
The Small Entity Update Act remains stalled in the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs as of August 2026. The Senate must act to move the bill forward, but the need for 60 votes to advance legislation serves as a major constraint. Similar efforts failed to pass in the 118th Congress, and it is common for the Senate to take no action on bills passed by the House.
