Join the Massachusetts Main Street Matters Tour!
This year, NFIB, partnering with the Retailers Association of Massachusetts and Restaurant Association, will host a statewide Main Street Matters Tour. Rather than small business owners waste timing sitting in traffic and paying outrageous Boston parking by coming into the State House, we are hosting smaller events in conjunction with local chambers of commerce.
We really encourage small business owners to attend and share their concerns on what is impacting their bottom line. Whether it be your energy bills, UI taxes, healthcare costs, or labor mandates we want to hear from you! We’ve also asked local legislative delegations to attend to hear how small businesses are struggling to compete.
We hope you are able to join us at one of these events
