The NFIB Arizona PAC has endorsed 51 candidates for the upcoming general election, with 16 running for the Senate and 35 for the House of Representatives. This decision follows endorsements made before the primary election. The committee is composed solely of NFIB members from across Arizona.

Chad Heinrich, NFIB State Director, stated, "Locally-owned businesses are the foundation of our state’s economy, creating good-paying jobs and thriving communities." He highlighted a recent survey indicating that inflation and healthcare costs significantly impact small business owners. According to Heinrich, these candidates understand such challenges and support policies beneficial to businesses in Arizona.

Heinrich expressed pride in announcing these endorsements on behalf of small business owner members and urged Arizonans to support pro-small business candidates in the 2024 general election.

Early voting starts on Wednesday, October 9, with General Election Day scheduled for Tuesday, November 5. Voters can find their legislative district by entering their address online. Additional voter registration information is available on the Secretary of State’s website.

The endorsement from NFIB Arizona PAC is significant as small business owners and their employees are known for high voter turnout and encouraging others to vote. The political support given by NFIB is based on candidates' positions and records concerning key small-business issues.
