Catching up with Team Cunningham on the Central Coast Business Tour

Templeton, CA— Assembly Candidate Jordan Cunningham is now three weeks into his Central Coast Business Tour. So far he is learning some of the challenges that local businesses face in the current business climate.

Cunningham stated, “So far I have learned that no matter the sector or size of business, they face challenges due to a convoluted regulatory system and laws that drive up labor costs and decrease staffing flexibility.”

Jordan already has earned the support of groups representing small business, such as the California Small Business Association, National Federation of Independent Business, and Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association.

The local businesses toured over the last three weeks, include:
