Citizens for Free Enterprise Action today released the latest installment in the “Faces of Free Enterprise” series, a regular content series that will focus on the people powering free enterprise across America. The series highlights the value of free enterprise, featuring local small business owners, employees, and other business leaders in battleground election states around the country.
The video, titled “Freedom”, features former Arizona Governor Doug Ducey speaking about free enterprise’s role in building our country’s founding values. Governor Ducey notes that our free enterprise system has expanded opportunity for Americans all across the country to pursue their goals and achieve the American Dream.
“We talk a lot about rights in our country, and we should: the right to free speech, religious liberty, and the right to assemble, but also the economic freedom to pursue what you want to do,” said Governor Ducey. “This is something we shouldn’t take for granted. It’s the opportunity that we should want for our sons, daughters, and grandchildren, and it’s also how we solve so many of the problems that people have in life. The country very rarely solves a problem by government, or even politically, we innovate out of those issues.”
This comes as national polling shows that small business optimism is falling, with entrepreneurs listing inflation as their number one concern moving forward. New polling from swing states underscores voters’ concerns over “Bidenomics” with 70% saying that the economy is headed in the wrong direction.
