LISTEN: Inflation Continues to Hurt Louisiana's Small Businesses

NFIB State Director Dawn McVea went on WWL radio in New Orleans today to talk about how Louisiana’s small business owners are doing. “They’re stumbling, still,” McVea told “WWL First News” host Tommy Tucker. “Things are not getting better. Just like the everyday consumer … the cost of going out and shopping for the needs you have is going up, and for small business owners, the cost of doing business has gone up, and inflation is not easing, and it’s not giving them a good outlook on the future. It’s really frustrating.” Listen to the replay below (McVea’s segment begins at about the 1:20 mark).
