Our members support the candidates who support small business
The NFIB Georgia PAC today endorsed 69 candidates for seats in the state General Assembly. The political action committee, which is comprised exclusively of NFIB members, endorsed 18 candidates running for state Senate and 51 running for seats in the House of Representatives.
“Small business is the foundation of Georgia’s economy,” NFIB State Director Hunter Loggins said. “When we elect candidates who support small business, we help create an environment where Main Street businesses can grow, create jobs and strengthen their communities.”
The general election is on Tuesday, Nov. 5. Early voting begins Oct. 15 and ends Nov. 1.
The NFIB Georgia PAC’s endorsement is important to these campaigns. Small business owners and their employees vote in high numbers and are known for actively recruiting friends, family members and acquaintances to go to the polls. NFIB’s political support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on key small-business issues.
