Idaho First District Congressman Raúl Labrador
today was presented the Guardian of Small
Business Award, given by the National Federation
of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation’s
leading small business association. Labrador
received the award for his outstanding voting
record on behalf of America’s small-business
owners in the 112th Congress.
“I’m honored to receive this award because it
says that I’m doing what I was sent here to do,”
Labrador said. “I am proud to represent the
people and the small businesses that make Idaho
great and I have maintained a voting record that
consistently speaks to the values we hold as
Idahoans. Small-business owners understand what
it means to work hard and invest in their
communities and I am very proud to stand with
those people who drive our economy and our
state.”
In presenting the group’s coveted Guardian of
Small Business Award, NFIB President and CEO Dan
Danner said, “Small-business owners pay close
attention to how their lawmakers vote on the
issues affecting their businesses and employees
and stand by those who stand for them. The
record shows that Congressman Labrador is a true
champion of small business, having stood strong
on the key small-business votes in the 112th
Congress.”
Danner praised Labrador for standing for small
business and maintaining a pro-growth voting
record.
