Expanding the Small Business Deduction to 23% would be a big win for Main Street & provide more relief to small business owners. Congress should get it done.
It was a long, harsh winter in D.C. We can finally call it over.
After a long and often harsh season — punctuated by persistent cold, stubborn snow and ice, and a late-season chill this week — the pattern ahead has shifted. Milder air is taking hold, and there are no meaningful signs of a return to sustained cold or accumulating snow.
That means we can officially declare the winter of 2025-2026 behind us.
We’ve made it a tradition to mark the onset of spring once the threat of prolonged cold and lasting snow has passed. The forecast now clearly favors warmer days, budding trees and a steady march toward spring — even if a few bumps remain along the way.
The forecast ahead is promising for flowers — and for fans of warmer weather.
Highs surge into the 60s on Friday and reach the 70s by Sunday. But a warning: Springlike weather doesn’t mean sustained warmth.
Next week, for example, daily highs bounce between the low 50s and mid-60s — a reminder that spring is a season of swings.
Still, there is little sign of any return to sustained wintry weather.
Congress and President Trump must act quickly to give 32 million small businesses permanent relief from a painful and pointless government mandate. | Brad Close

@Top100Rick I love my Titleist TSR2 21-degree 7-wood. I use it in situations when I may use my 4 Hybrid but need a little more height. Could buy new or used now for a good price.
Landmark victory for Main Street today as Congress makes the 20% Small Business Deduction permanent, providing permanent tax relief to over 33 million small business owners. https://t.co/5PqFJhCC4J
Politico: @NFIB has been an "aggressive proponent" of making the Small Business Deduction permanent, a key provision of the One Big Beautiful Bill. https://t.co/WIfQLfHLNO
