I know the blood, sweat and tears that go into running your own business and we owe it to all employers and employees in Texas to maintain the pro-business climate that has made our state the economic envy of the rest of the country."
"Representative Bohac’s legislative voting record is proof he is the pro-small business candidate in this race, and that he is keenly aware of the issues facing small business owners," said NFIB/Texas Executive Director Will Newton. “His voting record continues to demonstrate support our members’ priority issues, including workforce development, job growth and changes to the state’s onerous business tax.”
