Regulations
Reducing Red Tape to spur economic growth.
As a small business owner, I understand how government regulations have a huge impact on our ability to do business and create jobs. Entrepreneurship and innovation are crippled by the complexity of regulation compliance, and this distracts small businesses from focusing on the innovative ideas that move a business forward and allow them to hire more employees. This problem is getting worse every day.
I work to reduce regulations in a number of areas--from agriculture to insurance.
I'm a firm believer that before we impose a new government regulation, we should thoroughly evaluate its potential benefits and compare them to the costs the regulation will impose. Otherwise, we have no objective standard to determine whether it's a good policy.
