Last week the American Action Forum released an analysis examining how deregulation under the Trump Administration has benefited small businesses across the country. See excerpt below.

“AAF has found that, over the past year, there has been a historic decline in the volume of regulatory actions most directly affecting small businesses – even accounting for the overall downward trend in regulatory activity under the Trump Administration….

Across the past decade, there were 302 final rules that concluded OIRA review and carried the designation of being ‘likely to have an impact [on small businesses] as defined by the Regulatory Flexibility Act.’ This past year brought a historically low amount of six such rules. The average across the previous nine years was approximately 33.”
