Additionally, a second Democratic co-lead will be announced shortly.<\/p>\n The Congressional Family Business Caucus will meet regularly and will connect members of Congress with America\u2019s family businesses in Washington, D.C. and in their districts and home states.<\/p>\n The news is giving a boost and a new spotlight to family businesses in general, which make up some 59 percent of the nation\u2019s private workforce, or 83.3 million workers. There are 32.4 million family businesses in the U.S, representing $7.7 trillion in annual GDP.<\/p>\n Last year, the survey found the biggest worries were talent retention and new taxes, with some concern about inflation.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s survey, launched this month, is expected to have over 400 respondents, representing a cross section of America\u2019s core industries.<\/p>\n \u201cIncreased taxes and the rapid growth of inflation are likely going to be the critical factors coming out of this year\u2019s survey,\u201d said Pat Soldano, President, Family Enterprise USA and its sister organization, the Policy and Taxation Group. Both organizations advocate for family businesses and are based in Washington D.C. and are caucus supporters.<\/p>\n \u201cWith this new Congressional caucus, family businesses will now be more in the spotlight and will have the focused support of our leaders in Congress,\u201d said Soldano. \u201cAs this new survey points out key issues that need to be addressed, we can take our survey findings to these Capitol Hill leaders and show them the real need for help in these highlighted areas,\u201d she said. \u201cThe survey will point out family business pain points and how we need to address them. We look forward to working with the caucus on the many issues facing this country and our family businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n The Family Enterprise USA Annual Family Business Survey is expected to be completed in late February. Results are expected to be announced in March 2023.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider divider_style=”dotted” disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||14px|||” custom_padding=”10px||2px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/familyenterpriseusa.com\/2023-annual-family-business-survey\/?utm_source=FEUSA&utm_medium=cta&utm_campaign=2023Survey” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Multi-Generational Businesses Are At Great Risk. .
