The undersigned organizations write to express strong support for the passage of H.R. 4776, the “Standardizing Permitting and Expediting Economic Development Act,” or the “SPEED Act.” By modernizing the permitting process, this legislation will help advance infrastructure, energy, natural resource, transportation, and other projects that improve quality of life, revitalize communities, and deliver the goods and services families rely on every day.  Unfortunately, today’s permitting system is burdened by delays, uncertainty, and duplicative reviews that stall investment and innovation, leaving critical projects in limbo for years. The SPEED Act offers common-sense reforms that address these challenges. It helps focus environmental reviews where they matter, promotes project certainty through requiring clear timelines, and improves coordination among federal agencies to reduce redundant reviews. These reforms and others in the bill will not only improve permitting efficiency but also help businesses to plan and invest with confidence, creating jobs, strengthening supply chains, and advancing U.S. leadership in energy, manufacturing, technology, and beyond.
