FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Tray Abney, Nevada State Director, 775-443-5561, tray@abneytauchen.com or Tony Malandra, Senior Media Manager, 415-640-5156, anthony.malandra@nfib.org 

CARSON CITY, Nev., Sept. 4, 2024—The political action committee for Nevada’s leading small business association today announced its endorsements for the State Legislature. A total of 35 incumbents, challengers, and candidates running in open seats can now campaign as having the official backing of NFIB NV PAC, which made the endorsements. 

“We take extra time and care with our endorsements, because small businesses more than big businesses need friends in deeds not just in words,” said Tray Abney, Nevada state director for the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), speaking for the PAC. “The 26 incumbents we are endorsing have proven themselves as true friends of small business with voting-record scores of 70% or better. The endorsements we awarded to two challengers to incumbents and seven candidates running in open seats were based on an extensive questionnaire we sent them. I’m proud of the healthy bipartisan representation of this year’s endorsees, which speaks to the unifying force small businesses can be.” 

The Power of the Small Business Voice is one of the stronger ones in American politics. NFIB NV PAC’s endorsements are below. The asterisk denotes incumbents.
