The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization, today released new radio and digital advertisements thanking Rep. Tom Barrett (MI-07) for taking action to make the 20% Small Business Tax Deduction permanent.

The multi-platform campaign, which represents a continuation of NFIB’s multi-year advocacy effort in support of the Small Business Deduction, is running throughout Michigan’s 7th District. The ads thank Rep. Barrett for voting to make the deduction permanent and for stopping a massive tax hike on small business owners.

“Making the 20% Small Business Tax Deduction permanent is a big win for Main Street,” said NFIB Michigan State Director Amanda Fisher. “By voting to protect this tax relief, Rep. Barrett has given small business owners in Michigan the certainty they need to grow their operations, continue creating jobs, and give back to their communities. NFIB appreciates his leadership in standing up for small businesses in our state.”

The 20% Small Business Tax Deduction, first passed as part of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, allows small business owners to deduct up to 20% of their qualified business income. This critical provision helps level the playing field between small firms and large corporations.
