In addition, this year marks the first year our teams have worked directly with the new Congressional Family Business Caucus, where we were involved in its formation. The bipartisan Congressional Family Business Caucus participated in three Capitol Hill meetings in 2023 and our Washington, DC team members held hundreds of meetings with Congressional leaders and staff members throughout the year. These efforts provide America\u2019s family businesses with a new and powerful voice on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n
This annual report is designed to provide an overview of both the Annual Family Enterprise USA Family Business Survey results and the Congressional Family Business Caucus, as well as other relevant information. I want to thank everyone on our team, our members, supporters, and donors for their support and encouragement in what has been a very exciting year.<\/p>\n
