The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) reviews that its members celebrated a variety of important triumphs in 2018, including a delay of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Waters of the U.S. rule, a dismissed court challenge to President Donald Trump’s two-for-one executive order on regulatory relief, and a rescission of the union persuader rule by the Department of Labor. The federation notes these successes helped fuel 45-year highs in small business optimism and plans for job creation.
