Support Our Small Businesses

Small businesses play a critical role in our main street economies across New Jersey. Close to 900,000 small businesses employ just under 2 million people or 48.9% of our private workforce. They serve as the backbone of our main street economy. 

As devastating as COVID-19 is to our public health, its impact on our local economies and small businesses has the potential to be equally devastating - with a lasting and irreversible impact.

Support our Small Businesses! Contact your Federal Representatives and insist that funding and stabilization support for small businesses be included in current COVID-19 Stimulus and Future Recovery Legislation.

While we stay socially distant, it's time to become closer than ever to our Small Businesses to ensure that we protect and invest in their and our economic future.
