John --

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Representative Dusty Johnson (R‑SD) and Representative Scott Peters (D‑CA) for introducing the bipartisan ePermit Act. Their leadership marks a critical step in modernizing federal permitting and empowering American infrastructure development.

>> Watch our new video on why we need to pass the ePermit Act<<

Why the ePermit Act matters:

• It mandates a centralized digital portal for submitting and tracking federal permit applications, enabling real-time transparency and reducing administrative delays.
  
  
• Within 180 days of enactment, agencies like CEQ, FPISC, and OMB must establish uniform data standards and shared technology tools, from automated screening and public dashboards to document management and comment compilation systems.
  
  
• The Act directly addresses the critical bottlenecks of today’s legacy, paper-based permitting processes, which hinder the timely deployment of infrastructure projects.

What This Means for Let America Build:

• A modernized permitting process accelerates infrastructure delivery, reducing permitting times and improving economic predictability.
  
  
• Real-time public data and a common portal enhance project transparency, reducing litigation risk and enabling smarter planning.
  
  
• This reform supports American energy dominance and aligns with broader goals to empower clean energy, broadband, and transportation infrastructure.
  

Thank you again, Representative Johnson and Representative Peters, for your bipartisan leadership in bringing the U.S. permitting system into the digital era.
