BizPAC

The Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce government affairs staff works closely with policymakers to keep the interests of the Southern Nevada business community in the forefront of decision-making discussions on the local and state levels of government. To keep up such efforts, the Chamber relies on BizPAC, its Political Action Committee. Funded by the generous contributions of Chamber members, BizPAC allows the Chamber to aggressively advocate for government fiscal restraint and accountability on behalf of the business community.

The most powerful way to contribute to the political efforts of the Chamber is to invest in BizPAC. Your investment will allow us to further our efforts during the 2008 election cycle and at the 2009 Legislature.

Individual members leverage their political clout by pooling their BizPAC investment with more than 1,000 other businesses for a stronger voice. BizPAC allows the Chamber to be an influential, active organization that lawmakers must take seriously and counts on member support to achieve these efforts.
