“Across the country, decisions about independent work are already moving forward. What’s being decided right now is whether people will continue to have the right to choose independence.”
He added that sharing real stories of how direct selling works in people’s lives helps policymakers understand why this freedom is so valuable.
The DSA’s celebratory video shows how direct selling has been part of the fabric of America through different eras of economic change. It gives ordinary people the chance to build a business on their own terms, create income, and achieve greater independence.
Whether during times of prosperity or challenge, direct selling has offered a flexible path to entrepreneurship for millions of Americans.
As the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary, the DSA is reminding everyone that direct selling is not just a business model — it is an all-American story of opportunity, resilience, and personal freedom.
