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 />
