Small business owners from Virginia joined NFIB members from across the country in Washington, D.C., recently for the 2025 NFIB Fly-In.

Owners heard from House Speaker Mike Johnson and met with members of Congress and key staffers to discuss pressing issues facing Main Street, including the need to make the 20% Small Business Deduction permanent.

Virginia members had a productive meeting with Rep. Rob Wittman and shared their concerns with staff representatives for Sen. Tim Kaine and Reps. Jennifer McClellan and Eugene Vindman.

“These one-on-one conversations are important,” NFIB State Director Julia Hammond said. “Our members made sure the voices of Virginia’s small businesses were heard on Capitol Hill.”
