DES MOINES, Iowa (July 29, 2020) — The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization, endorsed Ashley Hinson for election to the United States House of Representatives to represent Iowa’s 1st Congressional District during a campaign event in Cedar Rapids today.
“During her time in the Iowa House of Representatives, Ashley Hinson has been a leader on critical issues for small businesses, such as tax and tort reform and government overregulation,” said Matt Everson, NFIB’s Iowa State Director. “She has a true understanding of the issues our members are concerned about. We are confident that Ashley Hinson will continue to be a champion for Iowa’s small businesses, and we are proud to endorse her today for election to the U.S. House of Representatives on behalf of the small businesses in Iowa’s 1st Congressional District.”

“Ashley Hinson’s 100% NFIB voting record speaks for itself,” said NFIB National Political Director Sharon Sussin. “She is a strong advocate for small businesses in Iowa, and we know she will continue to support pro-small business legislation in Congress. We are pleased to endorse her today for election to the U.S. House of Representatives, and we look forward to working with her in Congress.”

Small business owners are influential in their communities and NFIB members in Iowa will work hard to elect Ashley Hinson to Congress.
