Hagerty: “I Will Be A Strong Advocate Of Tennessee’s Small Businesses”

Nashville, TN — Today, the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) PAC, the largest small business association in the United States, announced their endorsement of Bill Hagerty, Republican nominee for U.S. Senate and former Commissioner of the Department of Economic and Community Development in Tennessee. 

“I am honored to have the endorsement of the NFIB,” said Bill Hagerty. “Now more than ever, small businesses need leaders who understand the importance of reducing government overhead and regulatory red-tape in a manner that creates an environment that supports small business growth. As Tennessee’s former chief economic leader and a businessman myself, I understand what it takes to stimulate economies and help small businesses, which are the engines of growth and prosperity in America. In the U.S. Senate, I will be a strong advocate of Tennessee’s small businesses – working to reduce taxes and unnecessary regulatory burdens to ensure they are always supported.” 

“Bill Hagerty’s experience in both the private and public sectors gives him a unique background as a candidate,” said Jim Brown, NFIB’s Tennessee State Director. “He saw our state not only recover from the Great Recession but grow tremendously in this last decade – and he had an important role in its growth. We know Bill Hagerty will be a strong advocate for Tennessee’s small business community on issues they care about, such as regulatory reform and making small business tax relief permanent. We are proud to endorse him today for election to the United States Senate.”

“Bill Hagerty has a true understanding of the challenges our members are facing,” said NFIB National Political Director Sharon Sussin. “We have no doubt that he will be an excellent champion for them in the Senate, and we are pleased to endorse him.”

Bill Hagerty is the Republican nominee for Senate in Tennessee. Hagerty earned President Trump’s “complete and total” endorsement on multiple occasions to be Tennessee’s next United States Senator after serving as the U.S. Ambassador to Japan.
