As a small business owner in Wisconsin, I know how important my voice is on issues that matter to our community & families. That’s why I am making a commitment to encourage civic engagement within our community on this #NationalVoterRegistrationDay #SmallBizPower #SmallBizVotes

In #VT you can register and vote any time up to and on Election Day, but that shouldn't stop you from planning ahead by making sure you're registered or your voter info is up to date now at mvp.vermont.gov. You can even request and track an early ballot. Cool, right?

Limiting access to personal bodily autonomy impedes progress toward an equitable care economy and #healthcare -- especially in BIPOC and rural communities, as they face the most significant barriers to accessing #childcare and #paidleave. #roevswade #supremecourt

We believe in personal health, safety, and freedom, and our work to build collective small businesses is more important than ever. We will fight for small businesses and low-wage workers to have the economic power now required for bodily autonomy. #SupremeCourt #RoeVsWade

The savings under the American Rescue Plan are not just important – they’re favorable. A majority of Americans, including #SmallBiz, think they should be extended or permanent. #APTCDayOfAction

.@POTUS’ American Rescue Plan lowered premiums and expanded coverage. We cannot lose these gains. Make the #APTC permanent, so #SmallBiz like MSA member Jill Swenson, a self-employed editor & literary agent, can stay afloat. Learn more about Jill's story: nytimes.com/2021/12/01/us/…

Ensuring true justice and equity for Black Americans will require dismantling discriminatory voter suppression laws that have no place in our democracy. This #Juneteenth we pledge to use our platform to increase voter access and fight back against these racist policies.

This #Juneteenth we are reflecting and recommitting to building a more just economy. A thriving Black-owned small business economy is key to economic justice.
