This bill is a joke. It claims to improve access to small business information, but all it does is create more red tape and bureaucracy. As a young entrepreneur in Montana, this bill will only make it harder for me to navigate the already complex world of small business. The big picture here is that this bill is a hindrance, not a help, to small businesses like mine.
