Washington, DC̢??National small business advocacy organization Small Business Majority announced today the addition of eight new staff members to our team. The new employees will increase our capability to work on issues that matter most to small employers.
The team members will work out of various Small Business Majority offices across the country, including California, Colorado, New York and Washington, D.C. Small Business Majority now has 25 members on staff working to engage policymakers in support of solutions that promote small business growth and drive a strong economy.
̢???The addition of these new staff members will help further our goal of solving some of the biggest problems facing small employers today,̢???? said John Arensmeyer, Founder & CEO of Small Business Majority. ̢???I founded Small Business Majority to give voice to the small business owners who have a different point of view from the old guard business groups. Our steady and continuous growth over the last few years shows small businesses want an ally advocating for them on these important issues, on both a local and national level.̢????
On Tuesday, Small Business Majority was also awarded a grant from the Missouri Foundation for Health to educate Missourians about the new health insurance options available to them through Missouri̢???s health insurance marketplace. This grant will allow Small Business Majority to expand our work in the Show Me State and hire two additional Missouri-based staff members in the coming months.
