There is nothing "small" about the impact of small businesses on our economy and society.  Our nation's economic success, not to mention the economic success of America's families, depends upon the achievements of small businesses.  While huge corporations were once the main creators of new jobs, small businesses are now the largest job generators in America and are responsible for bringing the newest and most innovative services to the marketplace.

Congressman Hefley is consistently recognized for his efforts on behalf of small businesses and their employees, as well as farmers, ranchers and other self-employed people.  He supports legislation that strengthens small businesses, including measures that provide small business owners with tax relief, affordable health insurance and retirement savings opportunities.
