Chamber hosting policies meeting

The Minnesota Chamber is a member-driven organization, and the first step in developing legislative policies and priority issues begins with its members.

Chamber members are encouraged to join a regional policy meeting 8 to 9 a.m. Wednesday, May 16 in the Town Center Conference Room at the Austin Chamber of Commerce to begin building and shaping the Minnesota Chamber policy and regulatory priorities for 2013.

Feedback will help review and revise current policies, and identify new issues that affect businesses’ ability to compete. The meeting will include a brief overview of the 2012 legislative session and a quick look ahead to the elections this fall.

Call the Austin Chamber at 507-437-4561 to reserve a seat.
