The SBAC has significantly impacted the small business community since 2010. From reducing LLC fees to championing legislation focused on reducing premiums for small businesses and increasing transparency to understand better what drives health insurance costs.
Our mission has always been to fight alongside small business advocates to enact policies that support small businesses, their employees, and our economy. And we love when our community responds to us in words or videos. It means the world to us and keeps the momentum going as we continue to secure BIG wins!
With that - check out our new Testimonial page with videos, words of support and a fresh new look.
And if you'd like to add your words of support to the page - there's a link for that too. Thank you for all you do to help us help the small business community. Together we are strong.
