Small Business Administration chief Linda McMahon said Tuesday that President Trump’s scaling back of regulations has resulted in renewed optimism in the business sector.
“I think the immediate relief in terms of my talking to small businesses around the country is regulatory reform,” she said on CNBC. “It’s not necessarily any particular reform or any particular regulation, it’s just the stacks and piles of regulations that they have to comply with.”
Ms. McMahon also said that the new tax plan will be an added relief for small businesses, though it won’t be as immediate.
