The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) has announced its endorsement of Representative Ben Cline for re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives. Cline, who represents Virginia's 6th Congressional District, is recognized by NFIB as a strong advocate for small businesses.

Julia Hammond, NFIB Virginia State Director, praised Cline for his ongoing support. "Rep. Ben Cline has been a legislative champion for small business since his time in the Virginia General Assembly," she stated. Hammond highlighted Cline's role as an original cosponsor of the Main Street Tax Certainty Act, which aims to make the Small Business Deduction permanent and prevent tax increases for small business owners in Virginia.

Sharon Sussin, NFIB Senior National Political Director, also expressed her support for Cline's re-election bid. "We are pleased to endorse Rep. Cline for re-election today," Sussin said. She noted his consistent support reflected in a solid NFIB Voting Record and described him as a dependable advocate for small businesses in Congress.

The endorsement comes from NFIB FedPAC, the organization's political action committee, which relies on voluntary contributions from its members beyond their regular dues. The decision-making process within NFIB FedPAC is guided by grassroots evaluations driven by its members.
