NFIB is comprised of over 350,000 small and independent business owners across the nation. “The importance of small business to the health of our nation’s economy cannot be overstated. When small businesses are able to succeed, we see prosperity and innovation across the entire nation. When this happens—when our economy is free to function as it is intended to—everybody has the opportunity to work and strive to achieve the American Dream,” said Tipton. “That’s why we’ve been fighting hard in the House of Representatives to curb the tide of overregulation we’ve seen come out of Washington that inhibits small business growth. We will continue to work to improve the economic climate in this country so that small businesses can have the opportunity to do what they do best—create jobs and strengthen our communities.” Tipton, who owned and operated a small business for over 30 years, is a member of the House Small Business Committee and serves as chairman of the Subcommittee on Agriculture, Energy and Trade. He is the co-founder of the Congressional Small Business Caucus, which includes over 90 bipartisan members, and is dedicated to advancing efforts to foster the economic certainty needed for small businesses and entrepreneurs to succeed and create jobs. According to the NFIB scorecard, Tipton voted in favor of key small business issues 100% of the time. “The record shows that Rep. Tipton is a true champion of small business, supporting the votes that matter in the 113th Congress,” said NFIB President and CEO Dan Danner. “This award reflects our members’ appreciation for supporting the NFIB pro-growth agenda for small business.” Next Monday, September 22, two of the nation’s most prominent economists will be joined by Congressman Scott Tipton (R-CO) for a Small Business Economic Road Show in Grand Junction. Tipton will provide opening remarks before Wayne Best of Visa, Inc. and William Dunkelberg of the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) present attendees with the latest economic data targeted to small-business owners.
