The NFIB Pennsylvania Political Action Committee announced on March 26 its endorsements for nine candidates ahead of the upcoming primary election. The committee, which is made up entirely of small business owners from across Pennsylvania, said its support is based on the candidates’ positions and records regarding key issues important to small businesses.
Greg Moreland, NFIB Pennsylvania State Director, said, “As Pennsylvania small business owners continue to manage various economic challenges, it is crucial that we elect lawmakers who will prioritize policies to strengthen our local economy. We are pleased to endorse this group of candidates today and are confident that they will defend Main Street in Harrisburg. We look forward to working with them.”
The endorsed candidates for the Pennsylvania House include Bud Cook (House District 50), Jamie Walsh (House District 117), Mark Gillen (House District 128), and Dan Moul (Senate District 191). For the Pennsylvania Senate, endorsements went to Lisa Boscola (Senate District 18), Lisa Baker (Senate District 20), Patrick Stefano (Senate District 32), Camera Bartolotta (Senate District 46), and Chris Gebhard (Senate District 48).
The NFIB’s endorsement process focuses on evaluating how legislative candidates address concerns such as taxes, regulations, and other matters affecting small businesses. The organization says these endorsements aim to support those who demonstrate a commitment to strengthening local economies through their policy positions.
With these endorsements in place ahead of the primary election, the NFIB’s Pennsylvania PAC signals its intent to back lawmakers who it believes will advocate for small business interests at the state level.
