You are invited to attend
U.S. Senatorial Business Roundtable
An Opportunity to Provide Input into Proposed Legislation Affecting Small Business
You are invited to attend a U.S. Senatorial Business Roundtable with Senator Mark R. Warner’s Legislative Assistant for Business Issues Amy B. Edwards to learn about and to provide feedback into Senator Warner’s legislation to reduce red tape and improve the way Washington does business.
Senator Warner is the Chairman of the Budget Committee’s Task Force on Government Performance– a bi-partisan effort to improve the operations of the federal government. Last year, Senator Warner led the development and passage of the Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010. This bipartisan legislation updated the existing performance management framework that had not been revised in nearly 20 years. Senator Warner’s legislation will help reduce overlap and duplication in government and will provide more frequent performance information to Congress and the public to let our government is doing on key policy priorities.
Senator Warner is working on improvements to federal financial reporting and regulations. In July, Senator Warner introduced the Digital Accountability and Transparency Act (DATA) which will create consistent financial data standards for all government reporting and has the goal of reducing reporting requirements for recipients of federal funds. In the fall, Senator Warner will introduce “Regulatory PAY-GO” legislation to change the incentive structure in federal agencies to reduce the growing regulatory cost burdens for businesses.
Here is your opportunity to be a part of the solution!
