NFIB Louisiana PAC Endorses 32 Candidates for State Legislature 

The NFIB Louisiana PAC has endorsed 32 incumbents and House members running for seats in the state Senate. The political action committee is comprised exclusively of NFIB members in Louisiana. The PAC has endorsed 14 candidates for seats in the state Senate and 18 candidates for reelection to the House of Representatives. The endorsements do not include the over 60 incumbents running without opposition. The NFIB Louisiana PAC will announce its endorsements in open-seat races at a later date. “Each of the candidates the NFIB Louisiana PAC is endorsing today has a strong record of supporting Louisiana’s job creators when it comes to critical issues such as tax policy, the state’s insurance crisis, and improving the state’s business climate,” said NFIB State Director Dawn McVea. “We believe they will continue to do everything they can to help our small businesses grow and create jobs.” The NFIB Louisiana PAC’s endorsement is critical to the candidates’ campaigns. Small business owners and their employees vote in high numbers and are known for urging friends, family members, and acquaintances to go to the polls. The NFIB Louisiana PAC’s support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on small business issues. NFIB is the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization.
