State Senator Jason Plummer (R-Edwardsville) has been recognized by the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) with a 100% rating for his support of the business community in the Illinois General Assembly.

“It’s an honor to be recognized again for my support of our small business community,” said State Senator Plummer. “If we want to grow our economy and create new good-paying jobs, we have to put forward pro-growth policies that help our businesses succeed.”

The rankings are based on legislator voting records on eight individual bills from the 103rd General Assembly (2023-2024) that affect small businesses in the state.

NFIB advocates on behalf of America’s small and independent business owners, both in Washington, D.C., and across all 50 states. The organization is nonprofit and nonpartisan.

“Small-business owners appreciate Senator Plummer’s stance on the issues,” said NFIB Illinois State Director Noah Finley. “This past legislative session, Senator Plummer earned a 100% small-business voting record. Due to his business background, he understands that small-business job-creators are vital to our local communities, and he has consistently stood up against governmental mandates and red tape that make it harder to run a business in Illinois.”
