 WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Roger Williams, Chairman of the House Committee on Small Business wrote to President Trump expressing support for the appointment of Casey Mulligan as the Chief Counsel of the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Office of Advocacy. 
 “After flagging for Biden multiple times last Congress how the appointment of a new Chief Counsel to the Office of Advocacy would help small businesses by reducing their regulatory burden, he failed to act,”  said Chairman Williams . “We are excited to see that President Trump is prioritizing Main Street by appointing Casey Mulligan as the Chief Counsel of the SBA’s Office of Advocacy. This Committee looks forward to working with President Trump, the Office of Advocacy, and the SBA to ensure small businesses are brought into the golden age of America.”

 Read key excerpts from the letter below: 
 “The House Committee on Small Business (Committee) writes to express its support for the appointment of Casey Mulligan as the Chief Counsel of the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Office of Advocacy. The Office of Advocacy serves as the voice for small businesses within the Federal Government and ensures Federal Agencies comply with the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA). This position has been vacant for far too long, leaving the Office of Advocacy rudderless and small businesses without a voice. 
 “During the 118th Congress, the Committee sent former President Biden two letters urging him to fill this position, yet he failed to nominate a candidate. Further, the Committee’s Staff Report on the RFA found that Federal agencies repeatedly failed to comply with the RFA’s requirements to the detriment of small businesses. With your appointment of a new Chief Counsel, the Office of Advocacy will have a greater ability reduce regulatory burdens on small businesses. 
 “The Committee looks forward to working with the you, the SBA, and the Office of Advocacy to reduce red tape and provide small businesses with a voice in the Federal Government. A strong Office of Advocacy will help ensure that small businesses, which make up 99.9 percent of all businesses in the United States, are brought into the golden age of America.”
