The Importance of Pro-Small Business Policies and Legislation The importance of small business to our economy, job creation and innovation is documented and well known. The facts show that entrepreneurs play the central role in our economy. Consider the following: • In 2011, according to the latest data from the U.S. Census Bureau, there were 5.68 million employer firms in the United States. Firms with fewer than 500 workers accounted for 99.7 percent of those businesses, and businesses with less than 20 workers made up 89.8 percent. Add in the number of nonemployer firms – there were 22.7 million in 2012 – then the share of U.S. businesses with less than 20 workers increases to 98 percent. • According to the Small Business Administration’s Office of Advocacy, 46 percent of private nonfarm GDP is produced by small businesses, and over the period of 1993 to mid-2013, 63 percent of net new jobs were created by small businesses. During periods of economic recovery, this percentage is much higher. These and other facts covering the many contributions of small businesses to our economy are widely acknowledged in the halls of Congress. Unfortunately, however, we still have to test whether or not pro-small business rhetoric is matched by how politicians vote on legislation favorable to small business. This has become more important as U.S. entrepreneurship remains in a major slump. Start-ups and self-employment have only marginally improved since the Great Recession. In fact, according to data from the Department of Labor, self-employment in June 2014 reached its lowest level since 1986. According to the House Small Business Committee at a hearing in September 2014: “The rate of new business creation has dropped by nearly 50 percent from 1978. In 1978, there were 12 new businesses created for each existing business while in 2011 this dropped to 6.2 new firms.” Our elected officials need to be doing all they can to advance pro-growth, pro-small business policies and legislation to encourage entrepreneurial activity in America. Such legislation would aim to lift government barriers -- like a complex tax system and high taxes, burdensome regulations and policy uncertainties -- off of

entrepreneurs. Our elected officials need to focus on policies that encourage capital formation, investment and risk-taking instead of one that turn people off or away from pursuing their entrepreneurial dream. SBE Council’s “Congressional Scorecard for the 113th Congress” gauges how members of Congress vote on issues critical to small business and entrepreneurship. For the 113th Congress, SBE Council scored members of the U.S. Senate on 10 Key Votes, and members of the U.S. House of Representatives on 20 Key Votes. Members of the House and Senate receiving a score of 80% or higher are “Champions of Entrepreneurs and Small Business.” Perfect Scores in the U.S. Senate: There were 42 U.S. Senators who scored 100 percent for entrepreneurs and small business in the 113th Congress: U.S. Senate’s 100% Pro-Small Business Voters Senator State Sessions, Jeff AL Shelby, Richard AL Boozman, John AR Flake, Jeff AZ McCain, John AZ Rubio, Marco FL Chambliss, Saxby GA Isakson, Johnny GA Grassley, Chuck IA Crapo, Mike ID Risch, James ID Kirk, Mark IL Coats, Daniel IN Moran, Jerry KS

1. S.Amdt. 297 to S.Con.Res. 8. March 21, 2013. Roll Call Vote 47: Medical Device Tax Repeal. The Hatch Amendment repeals the 2.3 percent excise tax on medical device manufacturers imposed by the Affordable Care Act. More than 80 percent of medical device manufacturers have fewer than 50 employees. This tax is damaging innovation, investment and U.S. competitiveness, and is crippling many entrepreneurial firms in the important industry. (PASSED: 79 Yes, 20 Nay)

2. S.Amdt. 156 to S Con Res 8. March 21, 2013. Roll Call Vote 49: Tax Relief and Comprehensive Tax Reform: The Grassley Amendment would protect American taxpayers from $1 trillion in tax increases and provide for pro-growth, revenue neutral tax reform. Reforming the nation’s tax code is a top issue for entrepreneurs. (REJECTED: 45 Yes, 54 Nay)

18

3. S.Amdt. 202 to S.Con.Res. 8. March 22, 2013. Roll Call 51: Affordable Care Act Repeal and Health Care Reform. The Cruz Amendment repeals the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. It encouraged patient-centered reforms to improve health outcomes and reduce health costs. ObamaCare has been a burden and complex nightmare for many small businesses. (REJECTED: 45 Yes, 54 Nay)

4. S. Amdt. 494 to S.Con.8. March 22, 2013. Roll Call 61: Keystone XL Pipeline Support. The Hoeven Amendment promotes investment and job growth in U.S. manufacturing, oil and gas production, and refining sectors through the construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline, which will be beneficial to the small businesses in the energy sector and suppliers that serve the industry. Construction would promote energy affordability, stability and national security. (PASSED: 62 Yes, 37 Nay)

5. S.Amdt. 307 to S.Con.Res.8. March 22, 2013. Roll Call 67: Death Tax Repeal. The Thune Amendment permanently eliminates the Federal estate tax, which would protect the long-term viability of America’s family-owned businesses and farms while strengthening capital formation and economic growth. (REJECTED: 46 Yes, 53 Nay)

6. S.Amdt. 535 to S.Con.Res. 8. March 22, 2013. Roll Call 71: ACA Tax Increase Repeal. The Toomey Amendment repeals the tax increase on catastrophic medical expenses created by ObamaCare. (REJECTED: 45 Yes, 54 Nay)

7. S. Amdt. No. 359 to S.Con. Res. 8. March 22, 2013. Roll Call 76: Stopping Radical Global Warming Regulations. The Inhofe Amendment reduces spending and decreases the risk of energy price hikes on small businesses by prohibiting the advancement of intrusive greenhouse gas regulations. (REJECTED: 47 Yes, 52 Nay)

8. S. Amdt. No. 340 to S.Con.Res. 8. March 23, 2013. Roll Call 79: Regulatory Accountability through Cost-Benefit Analysis. The Shelby Amendment requires financial regulators to conduct rigorous cost-benefit analyses on all proposed rules. New regulations precipitated by Dodd-Frank, including those being proposed by the CFPB, hurt capital access for small businesses as put innovative small firms in the financial sector at a disadvantage. (REJECTED: 47 Yes, 52 Nay)

9. S.2223. April 30, 2014. Roll Call 117: Wage Hike and Expensing Extension. This was a Cloture vote on the motion to proceed to a bill that would increase the minimum wage while extending Sec. 179 expensing for small businesses. The bill is bad coupling of polcies as the minimum wage hike would damage the competitiveness and viability of many small firms and erect more formidable cost barriers to startups. The temporary extension of Section 179 is important, but not worth the trade off of damaging so many small businesses and killing jobs. (REJECTED: 54 Yes, 42 Nay)

10. S.2432. June 11, 2014. Roll Call 185: Surtax on Successful Entrepreneurs. The vote was on a motion to invoke cloture on the motion to proceed to S.2432. The bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to provide for the refinancing of certain Federal student loans, and for other purposes, by imposing a surtax on wealthy entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs need tax relief in order to invest in their businesses, not punitive tax increases that siphon their capital. (REJECTED: 56 Yes, 38 Nay)

U.S. House Votes

1. H.R.1406. May 8, 2013. Roll Call 137: Working Families Flexibility Act of 2013 Amends the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to allow for more workplace flexibility, authorizing private employers to provide compensatory time off to private employees at a rate of 1 1/2 hours per hour of employment for which overtime compensation is required. Small businesses and their workforce want flexible compensation models that take into account our modern way of life. (PASSED: 223 Yes, 204 Nay)

2. H.R.1580. May 14, 2013. Roll Call 145: To affirm the policy of the United States regarding Internet governance . Given the Obama Administration’s proposal to transfer Internet governance away from the U.S, it is critically important to entrepreneurs that the Internet remains far from the control of foreign governments wishing to censor and impose their agendas through the Internet. This would be devastating to free enterprise and freedom. (PASSED: 413 Yes, 0 Nay)

3. H.R.45. May 16, 2013. Roll Call 154: To repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and health care-related provisions in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010.The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, is imposing higher insurance costs and complex burdens on small businesses. The price tag of the law is exorbitant, and most small firms are not experiencing lower costs or more choices as a result of the law. (PASSED 229 Yes, 195 Nay)

4. H.R.3. May 22, 2013. Roll Call 179: Northern Route Approval Act To approve the construction, operation, and maintenance of the Keystone XL pipeline. Entrepreneurs, as energy consumers and businesses working in the energy sector, will benefit from the construction of this important project. (PASSED: 241 Yes, 175 Nay)

5. H.R.1582. August 1, 2013. Roll Call 432: Energy Consumers Relief Act of 2013 Requires the EPA Administrator, before promulgating a final rule that regulates any aspect of the production, supply, distribution, or use of energy (or that provides for such regulation by state or local governments) and that imposes aggregate costs of more than $1 billion to the economy, to submit a report to determine the rule’s impact on prices, grid reliability, or adverse economic impacts. Affordable, reliable energy is important to small business competitiveness, growth and survival. (PASSED: 232 Yes, 181 Nay)

6. H.R.367. August 2, 2013. Roll Call 445: Regulations From the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act of 2013 Excessive regulation is weighing down small businesses and the economy. There must be a check on the unprecedented number and scope of new regulations being generated by federal agencies. The REINS Act requires Congress to vote up or down on all major rules before they become final. (PASSED: 232 Yes, 183 Nay)

7. H.R.1105. December 4, 2013. Roll Call 622: Small Business Capital Access and Job Preservation Act The Dodd-Frank law went too far in its regulation of entities where there was no history of market failure or fraud. Such regulations are undermining U.S. capital formation and capital access for small businesses. H.R. 1105 lifts unneeded SEC registration requirements by advisers of certain private equity funds, which will help to make capital more affordable and accessible. (PASSED: 254 Yes, 159 Nay)

49

8. H.R.2274. January 14, 2014. Roll Call 14: Small Business Mergers, Acquisitions, Sales, and Brokerage Simplification Act of 2014 Policies must enable entrepreneurs to sell and create new businesses, rather than face impediments imposed by costly regulation. For individuals who want to buy businesses, government should not erect costly barriers preventing such sales. For entrepreneurs who want to sell businesses and use the capital for other productive purposes, intrusive rules are preventing productive ventures. H.R. 2274 exempts brokers involved in mergers and acquisitions of privately-owned small businesses from expensive registration requirements. Businesses making less than $25 million in annual earnings or less than $250 million in annual gross revenue would be exempt from the SEC’s expensive registration requirements. (PASSED: 422 Yes, 0 Nay)

9. H.R.1123. February 25, 2014. Roll Call 64: Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition ActThis bill allows consumers to use their mobile devices with any wireless carrier. It also expands the right to unlock devices from mobile phones to all wireless devices. This pro-small business bill gives small businesses more flexibility, and reduces costs. (PASSED: 295 Yes, 114 Nay)

10. H.R.1944. February 26, 2014. Roll Call 67: Private Property Rights Protection Act of 2014 H.R. 1944 prohibits a state or political subdivision from exercising its power of eminent domain over property to be used for economic development or over property that is used for economic development within seven years after that exercise, if the state or political subdivision receives federal economic development funds during any fiscal year in which the property is so used or intended to be used. Reliable protection of property rights is a central tenant of entrepreneurship. (PASSED: 353 Yes, 65 Nay)

11. H.R.3865. February 26, 2014. Roll Call 69: Stop Targeting of Political Beliefs by the IRS Act of 2014To prohibit the IRS from modifying the standard for determining whether an organization is operated exclusively for the promotion of social welfare for purposes of section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This bill would prevent the IRS from imposing new regulations aimed at gutting free speech and curtailing the voice of entrepreneurs on policy issues. Engaging the voice of small businesses and entrepreneurs in the policy process improves policy outcomes. (PASSED: 243 Yes, 176 Nay)

12. H.R.2804. February 27, 2014. Roll Call 78: Achieving Less Excess in Regulation and Requiring Transparency Act of 2014 Regulatory overreach and secretive rulemakings cost the economy and small businesses more than $2 trillion annually, according to a new study by the National Association of Manufacturers. Federal regulators are out-of-control, operate by their own rules, and ignore their statutory requirements when it comes to including small business impact and engagement in rulemakings. H.R. 2804 addresses numerous areas to bring greater accountability and transparency to the rulemaking process. (PASSED: 236 Yes, 179 Nay)

13. H.R.3193. February 27, 2014. Roll Call 85: Consumer Financial Freedom and Washington Accountability Act This package of bills would bring greater accountability and transparency to the powerful Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). Its extensive regulatory reach is harming capital access, while its questionable programs – such as monitoring the credit card and personal financial information of American consumers and small businesses – is occurring because the CFPB

50

has few checks on its power. The CFPB is embedded within the Federal Reserve, Congress has no control over its appropriations, and the Director lacks accountability. (PASSED: 232 Yes, 182 Nay)

14. H.R.899. February 28, 2014. Roll Call 90: Unfunded Mandates Information and Transparency Act of 2014 This important bill improves existing law by making agencies disclose the costs of federal mandates, expediting congressional oversight of costly rules and increasing small business engagement in the regulatory process. Where agencies ignore their responsibilities, H.R. 899 provides for meaningful judicial review. Overregulation is choking small firms, undermining business confidence and investment, and holding the economy back. H.R. 899 is a measure to bring common sense and accountability to a regulatory system that is out of control. (PASSED: 234 Yes, 176 Nay)

15. H.R.3826. March 6, 2014. Roll Call 106: Electricity Security and Affordability ActEPA’s costly and controversial greenhouse gas rules for power plants will raise prices for all consumers and small businesses. Affordable energy costs are critical for many types of businesses, especially energy intensive ones. H.R. 3826 brings sanity to these regulations in that Congress will have more say in this specific rulemaking, and the EPA will be required to determine that the specific technologies they mandate in the rule (to reduce emissions) are feasible and usable in the commercial marketplace. (PASSED: 229 Yes, 183 Nay)

16. H.R. 2575. April 3, 2014. Roll Call 156: Save American Workers Act of 2014 H.R. 2575 amends the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) to redefine "full-time employee" as 40 hours rather than 30 hours as it relates to the employer mandate to provide health coverage in Obamacare. As it is, the employer mandate is a burden for small businesses. The imposition of the 30-hour rule is extreme. Job growth is suffering due to the mandate. The employer mandate should be repealed, but replacing the 30-hour rule with 40 hours is a start. (PASSED: 248 Yes, 179 Nay)

17. H.R.4438. May 9, 2014. Roll Call 211: American Research and Competitiveness Act of 2014 H.R. 4438 reforms and makes permanent the research and development (R&D) tax credit. This credit is an important tool and incentive for small firms to invest in innovations and innovative processes. (PASSED: 274 Yes, 131 Nay)

18. H.R. 4457. June 12, 2014. Roll Call 309: America’s Small Business Tax Relief Act of 2014 Realistic levels for Section 179 expensing ($500,000) expired at the end of 2013. The current $25,000 level is not practical for most small businesses that need to invest in equipment and other purchases that will help keep their firms competitive. Making permanent Section 179 expensing at the $500,000 level will enable entrepreneurs to plan and invest with confidence. Such expensing and permanency reduces complexity, burden, and costs for small businesses, which allows entrepreneurs to focus their resources and time on productive activities that benefit our economy. (PASSED: 272 Yes, 144 Nay)

19. H.R.6. June 24, 2014. Roll Call 342. Domestic Prosperity and Global Freedom Act H.R. 6 provides for expedited approval of natural gas exports to World Trade Organization countries, and requires approval for the construction, connection, operation, or maintenance of oil or natural gas pipelines or electric transmission facilities at the national boundary of the U.S. for the import or export of oil, natural gas, or electricity to or from Canada or Mexico. Small businesses and entrepreneurs are

51

driving America’s energy renaissance. These firms, their workforce and our economy would greatly benefit from the exportation of our energy resources. (PASSED: 221 Yes, 186 Nay)

20. H.R.4718. July 11, 2014. Roll Call 404: Making permanent bonus depreciation Private investment is central to economic, productivity, income and job growth. That includes capital investment made by small and mid-size firms. Enhancing incentives via bonus depreciation – in this case, making permanent a first-year depreciation deduction equal to 50 percent of the adjusted basis of qualified property, and expanding the definition of qualified property – would be a real plus for the economy, and small businesses. (PASSED: 258 Yes, 160 Nay)
