Make Your Voice Heard: Vote Your 2025 NFIB State Member Ballot

Make Your Voice Heard: Vote Your 2025 NFIB State Member Ballot

December 18, 2024

Advocacy

 NFIB state issue ballots allow members to drive policy-making decisions that matter most to their small businesses

NFIB relies upon small business owners to vote for their positions on state laws, rules, and proposals impacting their business. The lobbying positions NFIB takes in state capitals and Washington, D.C. are based on what issues small businesses vote for in their member ballot that are vital to own, operate, and grow their businesses. 

NFIB member ballots are sent via email, fax, and/or in the mail in two rounds; the first round was published Dec. 3, and the second round will be Jan. 2. The members in the following states can now vote their ballots: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming. If you live in a state not listed above, you should expect your ballot by Jan. 2. 

VOTE YOUR BALLOT 

The NFIB member ballot system has been the same consistent and foundational element of our work for more than 80 years. Our policy is One Member, One Vote: every member gets one vote on the key issues, both state and federal with no exceptions. This democratic system ensures that the voices of all small businesses are heard on the issues that matter to them.  

“One Member, One Vote drives the many ways our State Directors and their teams serve America’s small business owners in all 50 state capitols,” said Vice President of State Government Relations Tim Goodrich. “We’re grateful for NFIB members’ engagement with each ballot – it enables NFIB to best serve as the voice of small business across the nation.”  

Each state ballot includes a selection of major issues that matter to Main Street – such as energy choice, workplace heat and temperature regulations, greenhouse emissions reporting, right to disconnect, workplace violence mandates, and more. On each issue, small business owners can vote “yes”, “no”, or “undecided.” When a position gains significant majority support, then that state’s advocacy team makes it a high priority. NFIB’s advocacy teams are singularly focused on advancing small business interests in all 50 state capitals and Washington, DC.  

NFIB state ballots can only be voted on by NFIB members. If you aren’t an NFIB member, join today to vote your state’s ballot. The NFIB membership sign-up process takes only a few minutes and filling out the ballot takes just a few minutes more – but it will shape NFIB’s efforts and impact for months to come.
