Prove It Act of 2025

This bill changes the rules for how federal agencies must consider the effects of new regulations on small businesses and small organizations. When agencies create new rules, they would have to look at not just direct costs but also indirect costs that small businesses might face. If an agency says a rule won't significantly affect small businesses, it must notify the Small Business Administration's Office of Advocacy, and small businesses can challenge that decision by filing a petition. If the Office of Advocacy finds the rule actually would have a big impact on small businesses, the agency must do a full review, and if the agency refuses to cooperate with that review process, the final rule cannot be applied to small businesses.
