About SBA’s Office of Advocacy
The Office of Advocacy is an independent federal agency that is uniquely empowered to help small manufacturers with their regulatory concerns. Advocacy is the watchdog for the concerns of small businesses in the regulatory process. We work hard to restrain over-regulation that imposes excessive costs on small businesses.
Specifically, Advocacy supports manufacturers across America by:
- Connecting directly with small manufacturers across the nation to ensure your voices are heard in the regulatory process
- Advocating to reduce the red tape that has placed an unnecessary burden on your manufacturing business
If a regulation can harm or help your manufacturing business, write a comment letter to the government and send a copy to Advocacy staff.
