The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) is an association of small businesses in the United States. It is headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, with offices in Washington, D.C., and all 50 state capitals. The stated goal of NFIB is to advance the interests of small businesses.
Since 1990, it has donated $725,551 to Democratic candidates and party committees versus $11,972,074 to Republican candidates or party committees. It was a key opponent of President Bill Clinton's attempt to reform American health care in 1993, as well as a lead plaintiff to have the Affordable Care Act deemed unconstitutional. NFIB has criticized both the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The NFIB has lobbied against "click to cancel" rules (which would require companies to make cancellations as easy as the process to subscribe in the first place), as well as beneficial ownership rules (which would require companies to disclose their true owners).
