MA Small Business Day on Beacon Hill
Register for this FREE event here.
In 2018, Massachusetts small businesses face an unprecedented number of proposals that increase labor costs and impact how you do business. In short, Main Street businesses are being targeted by labor activists and those pushing an agenda that will inhibit your ability to operate your business.
This year alone Massachusetts small businesses potentially face:
- 26 weeks of paid medical leave and 16 weeks of paid family leave (partially employer funded)
- $15 minimum wage
- A 4% income tax surcharge for pass-thru entities (the so-called millionaires tax)
- A newly imposed MassHealth assessment
- Double-digit health care premium increases
- Highest in the nation energy costs
To protect businesses and your role as a job creator, the National Federation of Independent Businesses (NFIB) and the Retailer's Association of MA (RAM) are hosting a Small Business Day on Beacon Hill. This is an opportunity to educate policy makers on the effects of legislative proposals that increase the cost of doing business and hinder business growth. This is your opportunity to communicate directly with decision makers.
