NFIB calls on Alabama Legislature to support bill ending ‘essential,’ ‘non-essential’ business differentiation

National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Alabama state director Rosemary Elebash on Monday called on the Alabama House of Representatives to pass State Rep. Jamie Kiel’s (R-Russellville) bill that would effectively erase the distinction between “essential” and “non-essential” businesses during a pandemic or other declared emergency.

HB 103 as amended was given a favorable report by the House State Government Committee last week; the bill now awaits consideration on the House floor. If passed by the lower chamber, the legislation still needs to work its way through the Senate process before potentially reaching the governor’s desk.
