Local Advocacy – McLean County Chamber of Commerce

 

The McLean County Chamber of Commerce is the premier business organization in our community and serves as the leading voice of business on matters of public policy impacting the local economy. Strengthened by our Mission Partners in Advocacy we advance local policy priorities set annually by the Government Affairs Committee and Chamber Board of Directors. We do so by convening elected officials together with business leaders and advocating for priorities throughout the year.
