96 Legislative Candidates Earn NFIB Missouri PAC Endorsement

The NFIB Missouri PAC today endorsed 13 candidates for state Senate and 83 candidates for seats in the Missouri House. The political action committee is comprised solely of NFIB members from throughout the state.

“This is a pivotal year for Missouri’s small businesses,” NFIB State Director Brad Jones said. “Main Street is contending with the worst inflation in decades, an overabundance of ‘help wanted’ signs, and punitively high taxes. Missouri needs a legislature that will address these issues and help this state’s economy get back on track.”

The NFIB Missouri PAC’s endorsements are based on candidates’ records and positions on small business issues.

This 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.
