The undersigned organizations, representing millions of Main Street businesses operating in every industry and community in America, applaud the Department of the Treasury (Department) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) for issuing the interim final rule on March 21, 2025, which revises the beneficial ownership information (BOI) reporting requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA).

The undersigned trade associations appreciate the opportunity to provide comment on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding N-(1,3-Dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-pphenylenediamine (6PPD) and its transformation product, 6PPD-quinone; Regulatory Investigation under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); Extension of the Comment Period; 90 Fed. Reg. 5,798 (Jan. 17, 2025).

The National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association (NSSGA), and our construction materials partner associations appreciate the opportunity to provide comments on the United States Trade Representative’s (USTR) proposed actions to establish fees on Chinese Maritime Transport Operators; vessels built in China entering US Ports; operators with orders for Chinese built vessels; and mandate U.S. goods be exported on U.S. built and flagged vessels.

The undersigned associations ("Associations") appreciate the opportunity to comment on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (the Service) proposed rule (FWS-R3-ES-2024-0137) titled, "Threatened Species Status with Section 4(d) Rule for Monarch Butterfly and Designation of Critical Habitat." Given the critical nature of this proposed listing and its potential to stifle much needed investment in vital industries throughout the supply chains that our organizations represent, we encourage the Service to focus on a community and science­ based approach.

On behalf of the nationwide member companies of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA), I am writing to respectfully urge you to consider an exemption for the aggregates industry as your administration evaluates potential tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico. Approximately 2.8 billion tons of aggregates are produced annually in the United States. These materials are essential for various construction and industrial applications, making them a significant part of the U.S. economy.

As suppliers of America’s essential construction materials, we write to urge caution when setting tariffs on goods from foreign countries, particularly Canada and Mexico. Our organizations represent thousands of American businesses – primarily small, family-owned businesses – that produce aggregates, asphalt, cement and concrete. These products are used in every residential, commercial and public works project in America, many of which are funded with federal, taxpayer dollars.

The undersigned diverse group of construction and business associations—whose membership employs millions of construction industry professionals who successfully build and rebuild America— write to ask you to eliminate President Biden’s Executive Order 14063 and related final rule requiring federal construction contracts of $35 million or more to be subjected to divisive project labor agreements.

We respectfully request that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) withdraw the December 13, 2024 proposed Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity.1 We are extremely disappointed in this proposal for several reasons, most importantly that it imposes substantial additional costs on small businesses without any evident additional benefits.2 The next Administration should have the opportunity to thoroughly re-examine this proposal, using the Executive Order 12866 review process.

The undersigned organizations, representing millions of Main Street businesses operating in every industry and community in America, applaud the Department for its swift action in pausing the Corporate Transparency Act’s (CTA) reporting requirements while a nationwide court order remains in place, and respectfully ask that you strengthen this action by administratively extending the CTA filing deadline until at least January 1, 2026.

The undersigned organizations appreciate the opportunity to provide input on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (Service) proposed expansion of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge) Boundary. Our organizations represent a large and diverse cross-section of America’s agriculture, construction, energy, forestry, manufacturing, and mining sectors. Our members are vital to building a thriving national economy and are essential to achieving the nation’s critical infrastructure, supply chain, transportation, and energy goals.
