Your voice is critical to ensuring progress on many key issues that affect our business climate and quality of life. Issues such as education funding, transportation funding, economic development programs, and numerous other quality of life initiatives are constantly being debated by all levels of government.
The Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce needs you to add your voice to the dialogue by contacting your legislators. Most legislators are influenced by an outpouring of support from their constituents. This is where you come in. How can you help?
First, register to serve as a “key contact” for the Chamber. By signing on to be a “key contact,” you will be engaged in advocacy activity on key issues facing the Chamber. If you know a member of our legislative delegation on a personal level, we need you! Please contact Heather Blackley if you are interested in serving as a Chamber “key contact.”
Second, you can help promote the business agenda by contacting your legislators through the “Take Action” button on the left of this page.
Lastly, you might also consider attending a Raleigh City Council or Wake County Board of Commissioners meeting.
Thank you for taking the time to get involved!
