DUMP Red Tape Act

This bill would require the Chief Counsel for Advocacy at the Small Business Administration to set up a "Red Tape Hotline" within 180 days of the law taking effect. Small businesses and other small entities could use the hotline to report the burden of complying with federal agency rules, guidance, policy statements, or other agency activities. The Chief Counsel would provide an email address, submission form, phone number, or other method for reports, and a website listing them. Starting one year after enactment and every year after, the Chief Counsel would report to the SBA Administrator and Congress on the reports received, the agencies and rules involved, recommendations to reduce burdens, and actions the Chief Counsel took.
