Advocacy & Governmental Affairs

Together with the Chamber's Governmental Affairs Committee and regional partners, the Chamber works to defeat bills that are unfriendly to business.

The Governmental Affairs Committee works to keep you updated on the critical issues impacting your business, so you can take action with confidence.  Our legislative update contains issue summaries, recommended positions, and a list of supporting and opposing organizations.  In addition, we can make introductions to your elected legislators.

If you are interested in joining our Governmental Affairs Committee, please call the Chamber at 203-269-9891.
