that are Important to You as a Business Owner
Last year at Small Business Day, business owners from across Massachusetts sent a strong message to Beacon Hill legislators that their concerns matter too.
Join us again this year, where many of the state?s leading business organizations will gather to help educate policymakers on some of the latest issues that are gaining traction that hurt small businesses like restrictive scheduling, early remittance of sales tax, consumer privacy, and mandatory retirement programs.
Don't miss your opportunity to be part of this important conversation in 2019!
