Epermit Act

Floor Speech

Date: Dec. 9, 2025
Location: Washington, DC


Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of the ePermit Act sponsored by my colleague, Representative Dusty Johnson, and co-led by Representative Scott Peters.

The ePermit Act will help enhance and deploy technology to improve permitting processes all across the Federal Government. Perhaps more importantly, the bill is an example of what can be accomplished with a bipartisan approach to problem solving and good-faith negotiations.

The Fiscal Responsibility Act directed the Biden administration to study the possibility of improving digital tools for permitting. Representatives Johnson and Peters partnered to turn those Biden administration recommendations into good legislation. The current administration has helped finalize the bill with further input from both Democrats and Republicans.

Again, I strongly support this bill, and I hope to do more of this kind of important bipartisan work in the future.
