The bill makes it easier for small businesses to find onshoring resources and contacts through a centralized portal, at the cost of a modest administrative burden on the SBA and a risk that poorly maintained or incomplete information could mislead business investment decisions.
Small business owners gain a single, publicly accessible portal that centralizes onshoring resources and lists clear SBA and partner points of contact, making it easier to find programs and assistance to bring manufacturing back to the U.S.
Small business owners will benefit from annual input from the SBA Office of Advocacy to help keep the portal's resources current and responsive to small business needs.
If the portal lacks sufficient detail or is not regularly updated, small business owners could rely on incomplete or outdated guidance when making costly onshoring investment decisions.
The SBA must build and maintain the site within 60 days, creating an administrative workload that could divert staff time and resources away from other small-business services.

Requires the Small Business Administration to create and maintain a public website that lists resources and information to help small businesses bring manufacturing capacity back to the United States. The site must be live within 60 days of enactment, include contact information for relevant SBA offices and partner organizations, and be updated with annual input from the SBA Office of Advocacy. The website is intended as an informational hub for eligible small business concerns and does not itself create new grant or loan programs or change eligibility rules. The Office of Manufacturing and Trade will decide additional content it deems appropriate.
