Senator Marshall’s Investing in All of America Act Signed Into Law

Washington – This week, President Trump signed U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kansas)’s Investing in All America Act into law. The bipartisan legislation strengthens the Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) program by exempting investments in rural and low-income communities — as well as manufacturing and critical technology sectors — from the program’s leverage cap, unlocking more private capital for the areas that need it most.

“America grows from the middle out — not the coasts in,” said Senator Marshall. “Today, President Trump signed into law a bipartisan bill that makes sure the next wave of American growth reaches small businesses in rural and low-income communities, as well as the small manufacturers and innovators keeping this country competitive. This is a win for Kansas and a win for every corner of America that Washington has too long overlooked.”

The SBIC program has supported over 3 million jobs over the last two decades, including $505.4 million invested in Kansas and support for 98 Kansas small businesses. Despite that track record, less than 20% of SBIC investments currently reach low- to middle-income communities. The Investing in All of America Act closes that gap — directing capital where it’s needed, not just where it’s easy.

Senator Marshall Calls on TV Ratings Board to Put Parents Back in Control

Washington – U.S. Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) sent a follow-up letter to the TV Parental Guidelines Monitoring Board demanding reforms to strengthen parental transparency in children’s programming — calling out the entertainment industry’s continued failure to disclose radical transgender content and other sexually explicit themes hidden inside programming rated for your young children.

The letter builds on concerns Senator Marshall first raised in 2022, when Disney executives publicly admitted to intentionally embedding sexual orientation and radical gender ideology themes into programming aimed at young children. Four years later, the problem has only gotten worse.

A recent analysis of Netflix children’s programming by Concerned Women for America found that 41% of series rated TV-G and 41% of series rated TV-Y7 contained LGBTQ content, messages, characters, or themes — yet none of that content was disclosed to parents through rating information or descriptors.

Senator Marshall’s letter comes as FCC Chairman Brendan Carr has launched a review process examining whether the current TV Parental Guidelines adequately equip parents to make informed decisions about what their children watch.
