posted October 3rd, 2011

The National Federation of Independent Business, Virginia’s leading small-business association, has endorsed David Ramadan in the 87th House District race.

The endorsement was made by NFIB/Virginia SAFE (Save America’s Free Enterprise) Trust, which is comprised exclusively of NFIB members. NFIB has 6,000 small-business members throughout the Commonwealth.

“David Ramadan understands the challenges facing Virginia’s small, family businesses and is the clear choice in House District 87,” said Nicole Riley, state director of NFIB/Virginia.

“We believe David Ramadan will take a fiscally responsible approach to managing state government and support legislation that helps our small businesses grow and create jobs and puts the Commonwealth back on the pathway to success.”

“Being a small business owner and understanding that we are the life-blood of the American and Virginian economy, this endorsement is special to me,” noted David Ramadan. “My commitment to my fellow small business owners is to contine to make Virginia a great place to do business if I am elected to the House of Delegates.”

NFIB’s endorsement is critical to a candidate’s campaign. Small business owners and their employees vote in high numbers and are known for actively recruiting friends, family members and acquaintances to go to the polls. NFIB has pledged it will activate its grassroots network on behalf of the campaign. NFIB’s political support is based on the candidates’ positions and voting records on small business issues.
