NFIB members from Mississippi and across the national traveled to Washington this week to take part in the 2026 NFIB D.C. Fly-In.

The annual event gives small business owners the opportunity to engage with members of Congress and speak out about the issues affecting their ability to own, operate and grow their businesses.

“I want to thank Sen. Roger Wicker, Rep. Trent Kelly, Rep. Michael Guest and other leaders for taking time to talk with our members,” NFIB State Director Leah Long said. “I also want to thank our members for stepping away from their desks and flying to Washington to ensure that the voice of small business is heard in the halls of Congress”
