NFIB Endorses Juan Ciscomani, Highlights Record of Delivering for Arizona Small Businesses
TUCSON - The Ciscomani for Congress campaign announced today that NFIB Fed PAC, the political action committee of the National Federation of Independent Business, has endorsed Congressman Juan Ciscomani for re-election in Arizona’s Sixth Congressional District. NFIB is the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization, representing small business owners in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.
This endorsement is a strong reflection of Ciscomani’s record of delivering results for Arizona’s business community. Small businesses cannot grow, hire, or plan for the future without consistency and predictability, and throughout his time in Congress, Ciscomani has worked to be that steady partner for the small business owners who power Southern Arizona’s economy.
That record is seen in the Working Families Tax Cut, which Ciscomani voted for to permanently extend the small business tax deduction, a change worth a combined $169.8 million increase in the qualified business income deduction for more than 89,330 small and pass-through businesses across AZ-06. A permanent deduction, rather than one business owners have to plan around year after year, is exactly the kind of certainty and stability that lets Southern Arizona’s small businesses invest and grow. It is the same common sense approach that earned Ciscomani recognition from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as a leader on tax reform. That record of results carries over to the rest of his work in Congress, where the nonpartisan Center for Effective Lawmaking ranked Ciscomani the most effective member of Arizona’s congressional delegation, a distinction he has put to use as a member of the House Appropriations Committee, working across the aisle to deliver the stability small business owners need.
“Small businesses need consistency so they can actually plan for the future,” said Congressman Juan Ciscomani. “That is why making the small business tax deduction permanent was so important for our community. It is real relief for thousands of business owners across AZ-06 who are working to make payroll, grow their teams, and keep their doors open. Our small business owners still face economic headwinds, and I am going to keep fighting in Washington for common sense solutions that cut red tape and give them the predictability they need to thrive. I am honored to have NFIB’s support, and I will not stop working to be a partner to the men and women who own and run the small businesses that power our community.”
“Small businesses in Southern Arizona need a partner in Washington who listens and understands what they’re up against, and that’s exactly what they have in Congressman Ciscomani,” said Chad Heinrich, NFIB Arizona State Director. “Our members continue to face real challenges, such as labor shortages and over-regulation, and Juan has consistently backed common sense solutions that bring certainty and stability to small business owners. NFIB is proud to endorse his re-election and looks forward to working with him to continue improving policies that impact Arizona’s small businesses.”
The NFIB endorsement adds to a growing coalition of business, law enforcement, and community leaders backing Ciscomani’s re-election campaign, further proof that his record of common sense solutions for Arizona’s Sixth District speaks for itself heading into November.
