Small Business Advocacy Improvements Act of 2023

HR 399, the Small Business Advocacy Improvements Act of 2023, amends the Small Business Administration's Office of Advocacy to enhance its role in representing small businesses. The bill adds a new duty requiring the Office to represent small business views before foreign governments and international entities on regulations and trade initiatives affecting them. It also makes minor textual updates to existing law, including correcting "serviced-disabled" to "service-disabled" and changing "complete" to "compete" in one provision. These changes directly affect small businesses by strengthening the SBA's ability to advocate for them in international trade and regulatory matters.
