NFIB Vice President of Federal Government Relations, Jeff Brabant, appeared on “The Gary Sutton Show” on WOYK Radio in Pennsylvania to address the significance of the Small Business Deduction for small businesses in the state.

Brabant highlighted a critical issue facing small businesses. He stated that “without Congressional action in 2025, nine out of 10 small businesses will see a massive tax hike.” This potential increase underscores the urgency for legislative measures to safeguard these enterprises. Brabant urged listeners to “contact your elected official to protect America’s small businesses and make the Small Business Deduction permanent.”
