Tallahassee, October 17, 2016 – The National Federation of Independent Business, Florida’s leading small business association, today announced its endorsement of Bill Montford in Senate District 3. The endorsement was made by NFIB/Florida SAFE (Save America’s Free Enterprise) Trust, which is comprised exclusively of NFIB members.
“Bill is committed to our local business owners, and will support policies that promote small business growth and continue improving our state’s economy,” said Bill Herrle, NFIB/Florida Executive Director.
“I am honored to receive this endorsement – I truly value the contributions that small businesses make to our local economy and the service they provide our communities,” Montford said. “Just as local businesses have been a good partner to this community, I will continue to work in the State Senate to ensure that government is also a good partner to the business community.”
The NFIB/Florida SAFE Trust endorsement is based on a candidate’s voting record, interviews, and questionnaire regarding key small-business issues including healthcare, taxes, tort, labor, and regulatory issues. The endorsement brings the considerable grassroots support of more than 10,500 of Florida’s small businesses.
