Is Theft, Vandalism, Vagrancy Affecting Your Small Business?

If your small business has suffered losses from theft, vandalism, trash and debris, or other quality-of-life concerns, contact your lawmakers before they return to Olympia in January. Let them know small businesses are impacted by criminal activity in our communities and need to be included in discussions about meaningful ways to address these problems and that proposed “solutions” thus far focused on big box stores, treating small retailers more like criminals than crime victims. Dozens of brand-new lawmakers were elected in November. NFIB needs you to reach out to them, helping to amplify the Voice of Small Business in Olympia. Click the “Take Action” graphic below to send your message. Don’t forget to customize the message with your own personal experience.
