Stivers joins a list of candidates with strong business backgrounds supported by NAWBO National.
Washington, D.C. —The National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) is announcing its endorsement of U.S. Representative Steve Stivers in his bid for re-election in Ohio’s 15thDistrict.
“Congressman Stivers is a long-standing advocate for small business owners,” explains Molly Gimmel, NAWBO National Board Chair. “He understands the important role small business owners and women business owners play in our economy and works diligently to ensure they have access to the capital and other resources they need to start and scale their businesses. We are fortunate to have Steve Stivers in Congress and are proud to endorse his campaign for re-election.”
“I am honored to have the support of women business owners that are powering our economy forward,” Congressman Stivers said. “Together, we will work to continue to improve the business climate by increasing access to capital, fighting rising health care costs, and improving workforce development so business owners can find the qualified workers that they need.”
NAWBO National considers candidates for endorsement after they have won their primary. The selection of candidates is based solely on their history of business ownership or their voting record demonstrating their consistent support of business owners. Additional endorsements will be made by NAWBO prior to the November 6 general election.
NAWBO National previously endorsed Congressman Stivers during the 2016 election.
