Indiana’s Small Businesses Announce Endorsements for Primary Election

April 6, 2026

NFIB’s Indiana PAC endorsed 26 candidates

The NFIB Indiana PAC today endorsed 26 candidates for seats in the Indiana General Assembly – 13 candidates for the Indiana Senate and 13 candidates for the Indiana House. The political action committee comprises solely of NFIB members from throughout the state. NFIB’s PAC support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on key small business issues. A second round of endorsement announcements will be made for the general election at a later date.

“On behalf of Indiana’s small business community, we are proud to endorse these pro-small business candidates for the upcoming primary election,” said NFIB Indiana State Director Natalie Carroll. “As small employers continue to manage the rising costs that come with running a business, it’s critical that we elect candidates who will focus on growing the economy and strengthening Indiana’s labor market. We are confident that this group of candidates will be reliable small business advocates in Indianapolis.”
