What’s happening with SPUR Act?
The SPUR Act, known as H.R. 818, passed the House and has been in the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship since February 24, 2025. The Senate must now act to move the bill forward, but the main challenge is that the Senate often does not schedule votes for bills passed by the House. History shows that most bills passed by one chamber fail to become law because they never receive a full vote in the other chamber.
