Highlights

The House Committee on Small Business will hold hearings on July 1, July 14, and July 22, focusing on American legacy, AI adoption, and SBA oversight.
The hearing titled 'Main Street Meets Crypto: What Digital Assets Mean for Small Businesses' is postponed until further notice, keeping its venue unchanged.
The committee's July agenda emphasizes congressional review of AI, regulatory oversight, and digital assets' impact on the U.S. small business sector.

July hearings and revised timetable

According to House Committee on Small Business, the panel's updated July calendar starts with a full committee hearing titled "250 Years of American Legacy: Small Businesses and the American Dream" on Wednesday, July 1 at 10:00 a.m. ET in Hearing Room 2360 of the Rayburn House Office Building.

The committee also schedules a full hearing, "AI on Main Street: How AI is Shaping the Future of Small Business," for Tuesday, July 14 at 10:00 a.m. ET at the same location. Another full committee hearing, "Oversight of the SBA's Office of Entrepreneurial Development," is set for Wednesday, July 22 at 10:00 a.m. ET.

The Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Workforce Development Subcommittee hearing titled "Main Street Meets Crypto: What Digital Assets Mean for Small Businesses" is postponed until further notice. The committee keeps the listed venue for that session as Hearing Room 2360 in the Rayburn House Office Building.

Policy focus for small business sector

The July lineup shows the committee is concentrating on a mix of historical, technological and regulatory themes for the small business sector. Topics tied to the American Dream, AI adoption and SBA oversight suggest lawmakers are examining both long-term business conditions and operational policy questions.

The postponed crypto hearing indicates that digital assets remain on the committee's agenda, even as its timing is pushed back. Together, the scheduled sessions point to continued congressional scrutiny of how emerging technologies and federal programs affect small businesses in the U.S.

Our earlier article on the Water Resources Development Act of 2026 (WRDA 2026, H.R. 9497) covered how the bipartisan bill was heading to a House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee markup on July 14 after drawing broad endorsements from trade groups and local governments. We noted that supporters framed the measure as key to predictable federal authorizations for ports, inland waterways, flood control, drought resilience and related public-works projects with supply-chain implications.
