The Fourth Annual Energy Policy Conference, October 15, 2024 REGISTER

On this past weekend’s episode of “Minding Your Business” on News 12+, NJ101.5’s top-rated morning host and entrepreneur Bill Spadea joined to discuss what’s behind his passion of New Jersey small businesses.

“Not only is it the backbone of the New Jersey economy, but you look at almost a million people working in small business in the state – it impacts everyone,” Spadea told host Bob Considine.

“It impacts the owners, the workers. So, the problem is you’ve got a government, really on both sides of the aisle, that never fully grasped or comprehended that government needs to get out of the way and let these businesses flourish.”

Spadea also discussed his own movie production company Exit 19 and whether or not he’s thinking about running in New Jersey’s next gubernatorial election.
