TAB Applauds Signing of SB 14, Establishing Texas Regulatory Efficiency Office

AUSTIN, TEXAS – Today, Texas Association of Business (TAB) President and CEO Glenn Hamer issued the following statement after Governor Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 14 (SB 14) into law, establishing the Texas Regulatory Efficiency Office:

“As Co-Chair of the Governor’s Small Business Freedom Council, I applaud the signing of Senate Bill 14 to create the Texas Regulatory Efficiency Office. This new office delivers on a core recommendation from the Freedom Council’s report: eliminate duplicative regulations, modernize outdated processes, and reduce the burdens that hold back small business growth. The Texas DOGE effort is a model for the nation. 

"Texas is already the best state for business—but to stay on top, we must continuously improve how government works for entrepreneurs. This legislation reflects Governor Abbott’s commitment to making government move at the speed of business, and we enthusiastically support his vision. I want to thank Chairman King and Chairman Capriglione for their leadership on this important initiative. Senate Bill 14 is a win for regulatory reform, a win for small businesses, and a win for Texas.”
