Third Session: 2026 Legislative Priorities Input Session | Tues., Nov. 18, 2025, 10 AM

As we prepare our 2026 Legislative Priorities, the Chamber is gathering input directly from our members to ensure the voice of business remains strong and representative. This discussion will help identify the key policy issues impacting employers across our region.

Goals of the Session

  • Identify top business concerns and opportunities.
  • Gather input on regulatory, tax, and workforce priorities.
  • Build consensus around advocacy themes for 2026

Space is limited and reserved exclusively for Chamber members. You must register to attend.
 

A thriving private sector is the foundation of a strong public community, guided by respect, collaboration, and nonpartisan engagement. We value healthy debate and open dialogue that leads to practical solutions.

Past sessions have included:

  • Immigration & the Workforce: A conversation with the American Business Immigration Coalition (ABIC) about how immigration reform can address workforce challenges.
