The NFIB Alabama PAC yesterday said it has endorsed an additional nine candidates for seats in the state Legislature. Earlier, the political action committee announced it was endorsing 78 incumbents for reelection. The PAC is comprised exclusively of NFIB members.

“We need to elect leaders who will do everything they can to create and maintain an environment where small, independent businesses can succeed,” NFIB State Director Rosemary Elebash said. 

The NFIB Alabama PAC’s endorsement is important to these campaigns. Small-business owners and their employees vote in high numbers and are known for actively recruiting friends, family members, and acquaintances to go to the polls. NFIB has pledged it will activate its grassroots network on behalf of these campaigns.

NFIB’s political support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on small-business issues. To learn more about the National Federation of Independent Business in Alabama, visit www.NFIB.com/AL.
