“We are proud to endorse this group of pro-small business candidates to continue representing New Jersey in Congress,” said Greg Biryla, NFIB Regional Director. “New Jersey small business owners are known for their industrious nature, often having to navigate adverse state-level mandates. It is crucial that they have experienced leaders in Congress to ensure they can effectively operate and create jobs in their communities.” “The candidates we endorsed have a strong record of supporting New Jersey small businesses,” said Louis Bertolotti, NFIB Political Director.“Throughout the 119th Congress, these representatives voted for policies that cut taxes and promote economic growth for Main Street. We look forward to continuing to work with them in Washington.”
