The NFIB Georgia PAC today announced its endorsements for state legislative races to be held on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 3. The political action committee is comprised exclusively of NFIB members.
The NFIB Georgia PAC endorsed 32 candidates for the Senate and 92 for the House.
“Small business is the foundation of Georgia’s economy, and these candidates either have a proven track record of standing up for small businesses or have shown they will work to promote and maintain a positive business environment for Georgia’s job creators,” NFIB State Director Nathan Humphrey said.
The NFIB Georgia PAC’s endorsement is important to these campaigns. Small business owners and their employees vote in high numbers and are known for actively recruiting friends, family members, and acquaintances to go to the polls. NFIB’s political support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on key small-business issues.
