The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) has endorsed Gabe Evans for the United States House of Representatives, representing Colorado's 8th Congressional District. This endorsement comes from NFIB’s FedPAC, a political action committee supported by voluntary contributions from NFIB members.

Tony Gagliardi, NFIB Colorado State Director, highlighted Evans' "demonstrated commitment to leadership and public service." He noted Evans' understanding of Colorado small businesses' issues and priorities due to his experience as a State Representative and his strong voting record in the Colorado General Assembly.

Gabe Evans is currently serving in the Colorado House of Representatives for the 48th District. He operates a family farm with his wife in southern Weld County. His background includes 12 years as a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter pilot and company commander in the United States Army and Colorado Army National Guard, along with over a decade as an Arvada police officer.

Sharon Sussin, NFIB Senior National Political Director, expressed satisfaction with endorsing Evans. She emphasized his "impressive background and valuable experience," which align with small business priorities such as regulatory reform and permanent tax relief.

NFIB FedPAC's decisions are managed through grassroots evaluation by its members, underscoring its member-driven approach to endorsements.
