The NFIB Mississippi PAC has endorsed candidates in 38 state legislative races that are contested on Nov. 5.
 
The PAC has endorsed 15 candidates for seats in the state Senate and 23 candidates running for seats in the House of Representatives. The political action committee is comprised exclusively of NFIB members.

The NFIB Mississippi PAC’s endorsement is critical to the candidates’ campaigns. Small business owners and their employees vote in high numbers and are known for urging friends, family members and acquaintances to go to the polls.
