The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), Florida’s leading small business advocacy organization, announced the Florida PAC’s endorsement of Debbie Mayfield, Brian Hodgers, and Nathan Boyles. The Special Election will be on June 10, 2025.

“NFIB is confident that these three candidates will be reliable small business advocates in Tallahassee,” said Bill Herrle, NFIB Florida Executive Director. “Florida’s small business owners need elected officials to understand the issues that are most important to Main Street and commit to supporting pro-growth policies. On behalf of Florida’s small businesses, we are proud to endorse Debbie Mayfield, Brian Hodgers, and Nathan Boyles for election to the Florida Legislature.”

• Debbie Mayfield (R-Melbourne) is a current state representative with a strong NFIB voting record and is running for Senate District 19.
• Brian Hodgers (R-Melbourne) is a small business owner running for House District 32.
• Nathan Boyles (R-Okaloosa) is a small business owner running for House District 3.

The NFIB Florida PAC endorsement is an important signal to voters across the state that a candidate will stand with small businesses and support Florida’s local economy.
