Owner of a Small Business? Let NFIB "whip up opposition" to laws about to be passed which could harm your livelihood.

If you are a small business owner; a sole proprietor all the way up to an S corp, this is very important information for you, as the government wants to impose an invasion on your privacy plus more burdensome paperwork, cost and time. NFIB "whipped up opposition". 

 Here's something that popped up in Google about it and small business: 


After only 25 House Republicans voted for passage of a bill that would curb the use of anonymous shell companies, the bipartisan drafters of a Senate version are negotiating tweaks designed to win more GOP support…

But the National Federation of Independent Businesses whipped up opposition, calling the ownership disclosures a burden on small businesses.

The House bill’s supporters had hoped that the combined bill would attract more Republican support, given that Cleaver’s bill was approved in committee by a vote of 55-0, while only 10 Republicans backed Maloney’s bill. Maloney supported some Republican-sponsored amendments in committee and on the floor, and the White House issued a supportive statement of administrative policy minutes before the Tuesday vote.

But only 25 Republicans supported the measure. House Republicans Ted Budd of North Carolina and Frank D. Lucas of Oklahoma voted against it on the floor after supporting both bills in committee. And the co-sponsor of Cleaver’s bill, Republican Rep. Steve Stivers of Ohio, gave a floor speech in opposition to the bill. Five conservative Democrats also voted against it.

First of all, let me say this. I've always loved small business and having been in business myself for many years, I believe that there is nothing better. I encourage everyone to have some sort of business regardless if it only part time of a full fledged company employing many people.  I'm a membership rep for NFIB and am pleased to visit many business owners on a daily basis. To me NFIB membership is essential for any business person to learn about the issues, take as little time as he or she wants to invest in voting on them and then go about their business with the peace of mind that NFIB is working on their behalf. NFIB membership dues is whatever the business owners feel they can afford (up to $15K). It's more important to have a member than a dues which would hinder membership by very small businesses. Everyone's "voice" is important and NFIB is the "voice of small business" in every state capital and in Washington D.C.  That...

  Location Celebration of Small Business What is it? Every week North Wisconsin Small Biz celebrates a northern Wisconsin location and up to 20 businesses (first come first serve basis) in that location. We present a post listing your business (with 19 others) which is linked to your business Facebook page.   Viewers are asked to click on your link, go to your page and “Like” it.
