Advocacy

Having a voice in the government is essential to a successful business.

Your Chamber is proud to offer advocacy staff and volunteers who are dedicated to working with local, state, and federal elected officials to influence pro-business policies.

The Public Policy Committee sets the agenda for your legislative priorities annually. Building better relationships with local government leaders is the top priority.

Successful advocacy efforts include downtown development, improved transportation, career education, park protection, bayfront development, general local and regional economic development, and social justice.

Public Policy Committee

The Public Policy Committee is a group of business leaders who have come together to create positive change and build a thriving business community with a united voice for a supportive business climate.
