The Guardian of Small Business is NFIB’s most prestigious award. It is reserved for lawmakers who vote consistently with NFIB on the key issues identified by small business owners. NFIB tracks the votes of every Member of Congress. House members and Senators who vote with NFIB members at least 70 percent of the time are eligible for the Guardian Award. Congressman Byrne received a 100 voting record during the 114th Congress. Byrne said: “I’m proud to stand with the hundreds of small businesses in Southwest Alabama. Whether it is pushing for a simpler tax code or fighting back against Obamacare, I have and will continue to support policies that get the government out of the way so our businesses can grow.” NFIB President and CEO Juanita Duggan said: “Many elected officials claim that they are champions of small business, but our Guardian Award shows our members and other small business owners who is really fighting for them. Based on his voting record, Rep. Byrne is one of the most reliable advocates for small business in Washington.” Click here to learn more about the NFIB. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
