DOVER (April 14, 2022) – Mike O’Halloran, state director for the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) in Delaware, today released the following statement:

“The small business community appreciates the thoughtful changes made to the bill. But at the end of the day, our members are still concerned with its price tag and the lack of flexibility. Small businesses are unique not just in their size but how each one operates. This program assumes an employee is replaceable for three months out of the year. That’s just not the case for Delaware’s small businesses.”
