As Self-Employment Surges During the Pandemic, NASE Continues to Support Small Business Recovery

From Tax Assistance to New Business Formation, NASE Gives Voice and Supports the American Worker in their Mission of Starting and Thriving in the Operation of their Own Small Business

WASHINGTON, D.C. – As the American small business community continues to recover from the Coronavirus pandemic entering its third year, Keith Hall, president and CEO of the National Association for the Self-Employed (NASE), the nation’s leading advocate and resource for the self-employed and micro-business community, today applauded the American small business community's perseverance and determination throughout the pandemic, while the community experiences a surge in solo entrepreneurship.

“The American small business community continues to grapple with the ups-and-downs of the Covid-19 pandemic entering its third year; but despite these waves, the community remains resilient, persistent and determined to get to the other side of this pandemic,” saidKeith Hall, president and CEO of the National Association for the Self-Employed (NASE), the nation’s leading advocate and resource for the self-employed and micro-business community. “From stepping out on their own – either voluntarily or through no fault of their own – these new solo entrepreneurs represent the true entrepreneurial spirit of our newly transformed American workforce. Not only are these budding self-employed workers becoming their own boss by leaving W-2 employment, they and their colleagues across the country are finding new, improved and more efficient ways of conducting business. Remember, you are not alone – there are resources out there from NASE.org to SBA.gov and IRS.gov – and countless small business support websites and groups available to assist you.”

Hall recently penned a guest piece in the special small business campaign project of USA Today/Mediaplanet, Small Business Recovery. In the piece, Hall writes about the support NASE continues to offer the community and its advocacy efforts in Washington to fight for the policy priorities of American small businesses.

The NASE recently commented on the surge in self-employment during the pandemic helping transform the American economy. From tax assistance to business formation, NASE gives voice and has been on the frontlines of supporting the American worker in their mission of starting and thriving in the operation of their own small business.
