加利福尼亚州420,000多条规则阻碍了家庭企业;尽管在简化许可证方面有所进展,但改革努力仍停滞不前。 California’s 420,000+ rules hinder family businesses; reform efforts stall despite progress in streamlining permits.

根据加利福尼亚公共政策研究所的一份报告,加利福尼亚州面临严重的监管负担,超过420 000条规则,几乎是全国平均家庭企业的三倍。 California faces a severe regulatory burden with over 420,000 rules—nearly triple the national average—hampering family businesses, according to a Public Policy Institute of California report. 加利福尼亚家庭商业协会援引长期的许可证拖延,包括等待5年的安全栅栏,以及一个卡车经销商在240天的拖延期间因纵火而失去生意、造成24个工作成本的案件。 The Family Business Association of California cites lengthy permit delays, including a five-year wait for a security fence, and a case where a truck dealer lost his business to arson during a 240-day delay, costing 24 jobs. 一项新的法律简化了电气化安全围栏的许可证,导致在平均19天内安装了800多个设施。 A new law streamlining permits for electrified security fences led to over 800 installations in an average of 19 days. 尽管取得了这些进展,但审查和取消过时条例的努力却停滞不前,促使人们呼吁进行改革,以保护就业和经济增长。 Despite such progress, efforts to review and eliminate outdated regulations have stalled, prompting calls for reform to protect jobs and economic growth.
