Issue Committees
NSBA is driven by a 32-member Board of Trustees comprised of volunteer small-business owners who oversee the organization and our policy stances. NSBA’s Leadership Council, a broad, grassroots network of small-business advocates, also helps develop and promote NSBA’s policy agenda. Any NSBA member can participate in our Issue Committees, where they can raise issues facing their business and help the committee develop policy stances on those issues.
We have an open application process and encourage anyone interested in joining NSBA discussions or advancing their membership to work with our staff and leadership!

Issue Committees are comprised of our NSBA and Leadership Council membership.
