More State Tax Relief? Creighton, Burrows Working to End Onerous Regulatory Burdens for Texas Small Businesses


“Texas Regulatory Consistency Act” Will Bring Uniformity and Clarity to Regulations Affecting Small Business Owners" 

Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN, Texas – Today, Texas State Senator Brandon Creighton (R-Conroe) and State Representative Dustin Burrows (R-Lubbock) filed SB 814 and HB 2127, the “Texas Regulatory Consistency Act.” These bills will provide regulatory consistency for small businesses across Texas, returning exclusive regulatory powers to the state where they belong. 
 
“The Texas miracle did not happen by chance--it is a direct result of state legislative policies and a regulatory framework where the American dream can still thrive.

"This legislation will streamline regulations so Texas job creators can have certainty.  I am happy to partner with Chairman Burrows on this critical legislation that will give businesses large and small the certainty they need to invest and expand."   
     
                                                                                                                                                              
“For too long, progressive municipal officials and agencies have made Texas small businesses jump through contradictory and confusing hoops when it comes to the current hodgepodge of onerous and burdensome regulations.”

Said Burrows:
 
“By providing consistency of regulations affecting businesses across the state, our Texas economy will continue to grow, along with higher-paying, higher-skilled jobs.

"I’m grateful to Senator Creighton for his partnership in helping to level the playing field across Texas for small business owners – the engine of our state’s economy.” 
 

“Small business owners across the Lone Star State are grateful for both Chairman Burrows and Senator Creighton’s tireless efforts on their behalf. Amid rate hikes from the Fed, supply chain disruptions, and a worker shortage, job creators’ economic uncertainty continues to be exacerbated by local regulations and mandates.

"The patchwork of regulations that currently exist in Texas makes it more difficult to own and operate a business – and its holding back our economic recovery.
