NASHVILLE, August 21, 2018—The NFIB Tennessee Political Action Committee has endorsed State Representative Matthew Hill (R-Jonesborough) in the House District 7 race. Hill is one of eighty-eight statewide candidates — including seventy-four House candidates — to receive support from the PAC which is comprised exclusively of NFIB members.
“Representative Hill has clearly demonstrated he is a strong supporter of free enterprise and will stand with small business in the 111th General Assembly,” NFIB State Director Jim Brown said. “He is committed to promoting a positive business environment in Tennessee and truly understands the critical role small business plays in a strong economy.”
“It is an honor to receive this prestigious endorsement from Tennessee’s leading small business association,” said Representative Hill. “Small business growth is critical to our future economic success. I will continue to support initiatives that allow our small businesses to thrive so that our state remains a national leader in job creation and economic prosperity.”
The NFIB Tennessee PAC’s endorsement is important to Representative Hill’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. The PAC’s support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on small business issues.
