Jeff Atwater Reels in NFIB's Endorsement

The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) backed state CFO Jeff Atwater for a second term over Democratic opponent William Rankin.

"CFO Atwater is committed to supporting small-business priorities and ensuring that Florida maintains its pro-small-business climate, said Bill Herrle, the NFIBs Florida chapters executive director, on Monday.

I am honored to have the endorsement of NFIB and will remain steadfast in my commitment to fostering an environment where small business can thrive, Atwater said. As I like to say, the welcome mat is always out in the Sunshine State.
