Business Advocacy

Our Business Advocacy Committee is a group of politically informed leaders who enjoy keeping up with policies on the national, state, and local level. We communicate with members through surveys, phone calls, and in-person visits to determine what the business community’s top priorities are and inform businesses on policies that will affect them. We become the voice of our business community by keeping a friendly, professional line of communication open between Central businesses and local, state, and national lawmakers. Through member meetings, emails, and phone calls, this committee is helping to protect a pro-business environment.
