On March 26, NFIB New Hampshire members, along with State Director John Reynolds, connected with State Representative Brian Labrie of Bedford for an update on legislative developments in Concord.

Rep. Labrie, a first-term representative in the New Hampshire House, is deeply rooted in the state as a lifelong resident and small business owner. He is also a member of the NFIB.

During the webinar, Rep. Labrie shared insights into his journey in business and how his role as a small business owner influences his legislative work. He emphasized the significance of small business owners' participation in the discussions taking place in Concord.

Rep. Labrie serves on the House Labor, Industrial, and Rehabilitative Services Committee, where he plays a critical role in advocating for small business interests. His focus includes issues such as employment mandates, unemployment insurance, and workers’ compensation.

The webinar concluded with NFIB State Director John Reynolds updating members on various ongoing issues affecting small business owners, including state budget proposals, potential tax adjustments, and business regulations.
