Government Affairs Committee
Mission Statement
 
The mission of the Government Affairs Committee is to promote the growth and development of the regional business community through: the advocacy of positive and permanent business friendly government laws and regulations; effective communication with our elected officials; and development of strategic partnerships to accomplish these objectives. 
 
The businesses that comprise our membership face numerous obstacles; such as rapidly rising health-care costs, an overly burdensome tax structure, a costly legal environment, and unfair business practices. 
 
Recognizing these challenges, the Government Affairs Committee has created our Legislative Agenda in an effort to both educate the full Chamber Membership as well as the Legislative Delegation of issues of our agenda.
