A small government office called the Office of Advocacy, which is part of the Small Business Administration and works to represent small businesses' interests in Washington, would be required by law to keep running a "Red Tape Hotline" — basically a phone line or system where small business owners can call in and complain about confusing, costly, or burdensome federal rules they have to follow. That office would then have to write a report every year to Congress and the SBA summarizing what complaints it received, so lawmakers can see what kinds of regulations small businesses say are causing them the most trouble. In practice, this mainly affects small business owners, giving them an official channel to flag problems, and it affects federal agencies and Congress by requiring them to be given regular, documented feedback on which rules people find hard to deal with.
