What is Chamber PAC?
The Columbus Chamber PAC is a bipartisan political action committee that makes direct contributions to state and local officeholders who promote an agenda of private sector job creation. Investing in the PAC provides an avenue for like-minded employers who work hard to run a successful business to pool their resources to have a greater impact on policy and regulatory outcomes.
Why is it Important?
Government leaders at the state, county, and local levels make decisions impacting businesses and influencing the economic vitality of our community every day. It is vital for companies to support candidates that understand the impact of their decisions on the region’s businesses and families. Each year, initiatives and referendums are placed on the ballot and many of those initiatives affect the way in which businesses either succeed or operate.
Columbus Chamber PAC has made it a priority to help support state and local candidates who truly understand the need to support job growth and economic development. Acting alone it is extremely difficult for an individual business to make a political impact. Columbus Chamber PAC offers the business community organized political action to support candidates who advocate policies that ensure the economic certainty and stability for businesses interested in job creation.
