NFIB Members Made a Big Difference with the Nebraska Legislature

NFIB Nebraska members made a huge difference in the Legislature this year. Thanks to their taking action when called upon, small businesses now have a measure of liability protection against unfair COVID-19 lawsuits, some reductions in income taxes, a little more security against increasing property taxes, and greater broadband access soon to come to underserved areas.

And, bad-for-small-business bills were killed or stalled in committee. No one speaks with greater authority on small-business issues than small-business owners themselves, and no legislator ever ignores the email or phone call of a small-business owner whom they know to be a pillar of the community. It’s NFIB’s mission to release the power of small-business owners, and the numbers tell an impressive story. When NFIB put out the alert to its members, small-business owners responded in a big way.

  • 2021 saw a 400% increase in emails compared to 2020 and an 842% increase compared to 2019.
  • This was due largely to the 400% increase in actionable items.
  • There was a 700% increase in 2021 from 2020 in the number of members contacting their senators on important items as well.
  • That also means that in 2021, 88% of the Nebraska Legislature heard from NFIB members.
