The Chamber’s Government Affairs department offers many ways for you to stay informed about business issues including Third House forums (the next one is on April 20!), weekly updates on bills and issues in the GovConnect e-newsletter and current happenings through Twitter.

You can also take a proactive role by following legislation yourself. Here are some resources to help you become more active and informed about government actions at the state and local level.

Stay informed about state politics by:

• Watching committee hearings online and following bills that concern your business at in.gov/legislative.
