THE GOVERNMENT<br />
AFFAIRS COUNCIL<br />
By Anita Laruy, Director<br />
The Chamber’s Government Affairs council was created to educate members<br />
about what policies and laws are being considered and enacted, that will affect<br />
them and their respective businesses.<br />
During the political cycles, we hold luncheons<br />
and other special meetings to afford members<br />
the opportunity of meeting the candidates that<br />
aspire to represent all of us at the local, state<br />
and federal levels. During the off years,<br />
especially when the Nevada legislature is in<br />
session, we follow bills that affect businesses<br />
and insure that our voice is heard either by<br />
testifying in person or urging our members to<br />
contact legislators to support or oppose a<br />
particular bill.<br />
If you are interested in the government or<br />
political arena, join our Council which is<br />
open to Chamber members. We are now<br />
meeting every other month and do hold<br />
special meetings when there is an important<br />
issue that will affect all of our businesses.<br />
For more information, feel free to call me<br />
at 702-275-9761.<br />
Do not forget to urge your friends, associates and<br />
family members to vote in November. This is a<br />
constitutionally given right<br />
that we must all exercise.<br />
