Governor Larry Hogan and Representative Randy Feenstra are actively engaging with business leaders and advocating for policies to support small businesses. Hogan, speaking at the NFIB Leadership Breakfast and the US Chamber Board of Directors, emphasized his pro-business stance and plans for tax relief, workforce development, and regulatory cuts as part of his Senate priorities. Feenstra introduced the Main Street Tax Certainty Act to allow IA04 small businesses to permanently deduct 20% of their qualified business income, aiming to help businesses invest in their employees. Additionally, Feenstra discussed repealing the death tax to aid family businesses. These efforts highlight a broader legislative push to bolster the small business sector.
