www.HartfordBusiness.com January 12, 2015 • Hartford Business Journal 9 To view the full list, please visit HartfordBusiness.com the LiSt businesses that the uncertainty and changing mandates are the most frustrating part of doing business in Connecticut. That being said, if the legislature wants to begin somewhere, NFIB would certainly support a complete repeal of the business entity tax. In the past, NFIB has also been supportive of legislation that would allow for first time remediation of fines and the creation of a regulatory fairness board, similar to a model that exists at the federal level admin- istered by the Small Business Administration. Additionally, soaring energy costs are burden- some on our members. Lowering the cost of energy, specifically electricity, and providing alternative energy in Connecticut are fundamen- tal ways to improve the business climate here. Q: There's a general consumer percep- tion that they personally are recovering but the economy isn't in general. Is that same perception true among business owners? A: Unfortunately, the sentiment among small business owners almost universally is that they are not feeling the recovery or revival. Many are not taking paychecks, and haven't for a long time, in an attempt to keep their business afloat and provide as much as possible for their employees. They are trying to be resilient, flexible, and entre- preneurial just to survive. And I intentionally use the word survive because for many small busi- ness owners I hear from, that is the word they use. They feel they are just trying to get by day to day and keep their business running. And we are not talking about risky or startup businesses; We are talking about well-established compa- nies that are cornerstones of their communities. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, perception is reality. Fortunately though, the entrepreneurial spirit lives on among small business owners, who are hopeful for improving conditions and a better year ahead in 2015. But the fate of much of that continues to remain in the hands of state government. n Q&A Largest lobbying firms in Connecticut (Ranked by number of registered lobbyists in November 2014) Rank Company No. registered clients 2014 No. registered lobbyists 2014 Major clients Person in charge/ Title 1 Gaffney, Bennett and Associates Inc. 1 Liberty Sq., 2nd Floor New Britain, CT 06051 860-229-0301; www.gbact.com 79 (1) 9 GE, Northeast Utilities, Webster Bank, Pitney Bowes, Praxair, AT&T, Frontier Communications Jay Malcynsky Managing Partner 2 Capitol Strategies Group LLC 36 Trumbull St. Hartford, CT 06103 860-293-2581; DND 51 (2) 3 Microsoft, Citigroup, Tenet Healthcare Patrick McCabe Principal 3 Murtha Cullina LLP Government Affairs Group 185 Asylum St. Hartford, CT 06103 860-240-6000; www.govtaffairsgroup.com 46 (3) 7 IBM, General Motors, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Memorial Sloan- Kettering, TIAA-CREF, DuPont, Brescome Barton and CT Hospice Inc.
