NFIB Endorses Rick Scott For Another Term

Gov. Rick Scott spent part of this week touring the state, focusing on small-business issues. On Thursday, the state chapter of the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) announced it was endorsing Scott with its Florida chairman, Jerry Pierce, leading a Small Business for Scott group.

Gov. Scott has spent the past four years fighting for small businesses, creating jobs, and finding ways to grow Floridas economy, said Bill Herrle, NFIBs executive director in Florida. He has proven that he understands the challenges small-business owners face day in and day out. He has dedicated himself to implementing business-friendly policies, getting government out of the way of business, and improving the business climate. His hard work, persistence and support have given small businesses a real opportunity to grow and thrive. As a result, our membership overwhelmingly supports Gov. Scott in his bid for re-election as governor of Florida.
