The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) has officially endorsed Tony Wied as their candidate of choice for the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Wisconsin's 8th Congressional District. The endorsement is a significant development in Wied's campaign, as NFIB is recognized as a prominent small business advocacy group in the United States.

Bill Smith, the NFIB Wisconsin State Director, stated, “Tony Wied will be an asset for Wisconsin’s small businesses in Congress.” Smith noted Wied's direct experience as a small business owner, emphasizing his understanding of issues such as regulations and tax burdens and expressing confidence in his potential to support small business interests.

Sharon Sussin, the NFIB Senior National Political Director, echoed this sentiment, stating, "We are pleased to endorse Tony Wied today," and highlighted Wied's firsthand experience with business ownership. She expressed confidence in his ability to act as a "small business champion" in Washington, D.C.

The endorsement originates from NFIB FedPAC, the organization's political action committee. Funded by voluntary contributions from NFIB members, NFIB FedPAC's endorsement decisions are based on grassroots evaluations led by the organization's members.
