Lawmakers Hear Directly from Family Business Leaders on Capitol Hill
-- The bipartisan Congressional Family Business Caucus saw its 51st member, Rep. Tim Moore (R-NC), join its bipartisan ranks as the midterm legislative agenda affecting family-owned businesses approaches.
Rep. Moore follows Rep. David Min’s (D-CA) signing on to the growing list of lawmakers joining the Caucus.
The Caucus is co-chaired by Rep. Lou Correa (D-CA) and Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) and is now comprised of 22 Democrats and 29 Republicans. The Caucus, which held three meetings in 2026, is organized by Family Enterprise USA, a bipartisan not-for-profit that advocates for family-owned businesses across the country.
Last month, the Caucus held its last meeting of the 119th Congress with the themes: “The Price of Prosperity” and “Family Business Strategies for Battling All Taxes on Success."
The meeting, held in the Dirksen Senate Office Building, heard from two house members, Rep. David Kustoff (R-TN) and Rep. Jimmy Panetta (D-CA), who shared their overview of the upcoming midterms and how they may affect family-owned businesses.
The Congressional Family Business Caucus was created to help lawmakers understand the complex issues facing family-owned businesses, to educate them on critical legislation affecting family business growth, and to support the millions of family-owned businesses that serve as the cornerstone of local economies nationwide.
“We’re excited to see Representative Tim Moore join this important forum advocating for hardworking, family-owned businesses,” said Tim Schultz, Chief Executive Officer, Family Enterprise USA and Family Enterprise USA Action. “It’s important that our lawmakers understand what a powerful economic engine family-owned businesses are for our country, and this Caucus helps them craft policies that keep family businesses strong and growing,” said Schultz.
America’s family businesses are the largest private employers in the country, accounting for 83.3 million jobs in some 32 million family businesses across the country, according to research. These businesses contribute $7.7 trillion annually to U.S. gross domestic product.
