Rallying for Small Businesses: The Importance of Voting in Texas House Elections and the NFIB’s Picks

As a journalist, I would rewrite the article as follows:

Small business owners in Texas are facing numerous challenges in the current economy, with optimism at its lowest level since 2012. It is now more important than ever for them to have advocates in Austin. To support pro-small business candidates in the May 2024 runoff elections, make a plan to vote and be the #VoiceOfSmallBusiness. Early voting will be held from May 20 to May 24, with polls open from 7:00 AM CT to 7:00 PM CT. Don’t forget to register to vote by April 29 and visit VoteTexas.gov for more information.

Elections are a crucial decision for small businesses, and NFIB’s Texas PAC has endorsed several incumbent candidates running for Texas House of Representatives seats. These candidates include Gary VanDeaver, Dade Phelan, Justin Holland, John Kuempel, DeWayne Burns, Frederick Frazier, Lynn Stucky, and Stephanie Klick. Small business owners vote in high numbers and can influence others to join them in supporting pro-small business candidates. Make your plan to vote today and help turn out the powerful small-business voting bloc.
