WASHINGTON, D.C. (March 7, 2025) – The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization, sent letters to leaders of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, and the House Committee on Education and the Workforce in strong opposition to the Richard L. Trumka Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act of 2025. This legislation would dramatically upend long-standing employment law in favor of labor unions at the expense of small businesses and American workers.

“The PRO Act is anti-worker, anti-free choice, and anti-small business,” said Dylan Rosnick, NFIB Principal of Federal Government Relations. “It includes numerous policies that are not only overwhelmingly opposed by small business owners but have also been dismissed in the courts and rejected by Congress for decades. NFIB urges Congress to reject this legislation and protect small business owners from increased labor costs and burdensome regulations.”
