The undersigned organizations, representing millions of Main Street businesses operating in every industry and community in America, urge the Department of the Treasury to immediately purge the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) database of all beneficial ownership information submitted by domestic entities that are no longer required to file. We also ask that you move quickly to promulgate the final rule exempting US businesses from the reporting requirement. Last year, the Administration took the important step of narrowing the CTA's scope to apply to foreign entities only.

 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.

On behalf of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA), the American Cement Association (ACA), National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA), National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA) and our member companies that supply critical construction materials for roads, infrastructure, energy and agriculture, we write to express our strong support for two bipartisan bills being considered on the House floor this week: the SPEED Act and the PERMIT Act.

We write to urge you to take meaningful and bipartisan action to pass comprehensive permitting reform.

On behalf of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) and our member companies that supply essential construction materials for the infrastructure, energy and agriculture sectors, I am writing to express our strong support for the Standardizing Permitting and Expediting Economic Development (SPEED) Act.

On behalf of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) and our member companies that supply critical construction materials for roads, infrastructure, energy, and agriculture, I write to express strong support for H.R. 3898, the Promoting Efficient Review for Modern Infrastructure Today (PERMIT) Act. This bill will streamline the Clean Water Act (CWA) permitting process and reduce bureaucratic red tape. We commend your leadership in advancing commonsense reforms that protect water quality, while supporting essential domestic infrastructure.

The National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association (NSSGA), is pleased to submit these comments on the Army Corps (Corps) of Engineers’ proposal to reissue and modify nationwide permits (NWPs). NSSGA supports this reissuance but continues to believe the size limits are too small and that aggregates should have its own permit, separate from other mining. NSSGA is the leading advocate for the aggregates industry.
