After locking in tax cuts and trade agreements, the next major push targets regulatory burden. The Small Business Administration's deregulation task force is tackling rules inherited from the previous administration that have been blamed for suppressing hiring, constraining expansion, and inflating operational expenses. The underlying logic: fewer compliance requirements means lower business costs, which frees up capital for growth and hiring. This regulatory cleanup could reshape the business landscape, particularly for smaller enterprises squeezed by complex compliance frameworks. Whether this approach delivers the promised economic lift depends on execution and which specific rules get revisited.
