Small Business Advocacy Group Endorses Foncello for Reelection

Brookfield, Conn. – A leading advocacy group for small businesses has endorsed state Rep. Martin
Foncello’s efforts on behalf of job creators, signaling to its members that he should be sent back to
the legislature to help promote Connecticut’s continued economic recovery.

In its endorsement of Foncello on Monday, the Connecticut-based political action committee for the
National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) wrote, “you will be committed to the needs of
thousands of Main Street small businesses and their employees in Connecticut when you are elected
to serve in Hartford.”

NFIB is the leading small-business association in the nation with thousands of members in
Connecticut representing a cross-section of the state’s economy. For more than 75 years, NFIB has
advocated on behalf of America’s small and independent business owners, both in Washington, D.C.,
and in all 50 state capitals. NFIB is nonprofit, nonpartisan, and member-driven. Since its founding in
1943, NFIB has been exclusively dedicated to small and independent businesses and remains so
today.

“I’m proud to stand with small businesses and to vote on legislation with them in mind. I also
proposed a bill earlier in the year that would have repealed the state’s Truck Tax, which drives up
the cost of food and other everyday items businesses and households use,” said Foncello, who
represents the 107th House District serving residents of Brookfield, Bethel, and Newtown. “As a
member of the Early Childhood Caucus I was also pleased to support a bill to bolster that workforce.
Child care providers enable parents to give their undivided attention to their jobs, growing the
economy.”

Foncello, of Brookfield, is a member of the committees on Appropriations, Aging, and Education..
