Brad Close, President of the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), has expressed appreciation for Senator Steve Daines following the senator’s announcement that he will retire. The NFIB is a prominent organization representing small business interests across the United States.

In his statement, Close highlighted Daines’ efforts to support small businesses during his time in Congress. “NFIB is grateful for Senator Steve Daines and his consistent leadership on behalf of small business owners nationwide. His leadership was instrumental in the landmark victory of stopping a massive tax hike on Main Street and making the 20% Small Business Deduction permanent. Senator Daines has been a strong, dependable voice for the small and independent business owners that NFIB represents, and we commend him for his steadfast leadership and support for small business during his 13 years of service in the U.S. House and Senate.”
