Small Biz Regulatory Watch, April 24, 2015
Terrence P. Murphy
April 24, 2015
As a small business owner I have experienced firsthand the overreaching arm of government. If our State is serious about improving the business climate here we must make our government more transparent, responsible and accountable to the business community. As the Chairman of the Administrative Regulations Review Commission I am committed to offering that service through my Small Biz Reg Watch.
Should you have any suggestions about how we can improve this service please do not hesitate to contact me.
It is an honor and privilege to serve you.
Wishing you the best,
