2021-22 NFIB Voting Record Shows Indiana Remains Very Friendly to Small Business

NFIB State Director?Natalie Robinson said today that 52 state legislators?—?two in the Senate and 50 in the House?—?achieved a 100 percent NFIB?Indiana Voting?Record?in the 2021-22 legislative session. In addition, 32 members of the Senate and 15 members of the House achieved voting records of 90 percent to 92 percent. The 2021-22 Indiana Voting?Record?includes 14 key?votes?on issues of critical importance to the state’s small businesses including tax relief, broadband expansion, and COVID-19 recovery efforts. It does not factor in that many of these legislators took the small business position on bills in committee.

NFIB tracks key legislative issues identified by our small business members every session and then tabulates a score for each member of the state legislature. The 2021-22 NFIB Indiana Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting, nor does it represent a complete profile of a legislator, but it does provide information voters can consider when evaluating their legislator’s attitudes toward small businesses. “On behalf of our members, I want to sincerely thank the legislators who voted time and again to help Indiana’s job creators,” Robinson said.
