The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), an organization that advocates for small businesses across the nation, has announced that Illinois State Senator Andrew Chesney (R-Freeport) has earned a perfect 100% on the 2023-3024 legislative scorecard.
“Senator Chesney has earned an impressive 100% small-business voting record,” said NFIB Illinois State Director Noah Finley. “He consistently sides with small-business owners on issues that impact their businesses. Unlike many in Springfield, he understands that small-business job-creators are vital to our local economies.”
Rankings are based on legislator voting records on eight individual bills from the 103rd General Assembly (2023-2024) that affect small businesses in the state. Click here to read a summary of the bills included in the rankings.
“Businesses, large and small, are under attack from the Democrat supermajority in Illinois, so it is an honor to be recognized for my support of small businesses,” said Chesney. “Small businesses employ the vast majority of people in the workforce and the business owners are our neighbors and friends. They provide well-paying jobs in our communities and I will continue to fight back against the anti-business policies that are brought forward by Illinois Democrats.”
NFIB is the voice of small business, advocating on behalf of America’s small and independent business owners, both in Washington, D.C., and in all 50 states. NFIB is nonprofit and nonpartisan.
