PHOENIX, Jan. 14, 2019—The following statement was released by Chad Heinrich, Arizona state director for the National Federation of Independent Business, after this afternoon’s State-of-the-State address by Gov. Doug Ducey.
“Small business is ready to get to work and move Arizona’s economy forward. Finding qualified workers is small businesses’ top problem going into 2019. The idea of universal recognition for all out-of-state occupational licenses could be an important component to growing Arizona’s available workforce.
“We hope that the trend of eliminating unneeded and outdated government regulations continues. Saving taxpayer dollars by consolidating agencies and offices while challenging the Legislature to repeal unneeded laws are all concepts that small businesses support. Rather than going on a spending spree, committing dollars to the rainy-day fund is prudent, knowing that the economy could be in a late stage of expansion.”
