The NFIB Pennsylvania PAC has announced its endorsements for candidates in the upcoming statewide elections. The organization, which supports small business interests, has backed three individuals for statewide office: Dave Sunday for Attorney General, Tim DeFoor for Auditor General, and Stacy Garrity for Treasurer.

In addition to these endorsements, the NFIB Pennsylvania PAC has also endorsed a range of candidates for the Pennsylvania General Assembly. These endorsements are based on the candidates' policy positions on key issues affecting small businesses. The NFIB recently released its 2023-24 Pennsylvania Voting Record, which evaluated 20 significant votes in the General Assembly.

Greg Moreland, NFIB Pennsylvania State Director, emphasized the importance of this election cycle for small businesses across the state. "This election cycle is crucial for small businesses throughout the Commonwealth and now more than ever we need small business advocates in Harrisburg," he stated. Moreland highlighted ongoing challenges such as rising costs and worker shortages that continue to impact the small business community. "We are proud to endorse these candidates because we know they will promote good policies for Main Street and support our Pennsylvania small businesses," he added.

For the Pennsylvania Senate, candidates receiving endorsements include Joe Picozzi (District 5), Mike Woodin (District 9), Scott Martin (District 13), Dominic DiFrancesco II (District 15), among others. In total, 18 Senate districts have endorsed candidates.

Similarly, numerous candidates have been endorsed for various districts within the Pennsylvania House. This includes Micah Goring (District 3), Jacob D. Banta (District 4), Eric Weaknecht (District 5), Brad Roae (District 6), Parke Wentling (District 7), and many others across different districts.

These endorsements reflect the NFIB's commitment to supporting legislative candidates who advocate for policies beneficial to small businesses within Pennsylvania.
