our legislature

The Michigan Chamber Policy Advisory Committees help guide the Chamber’s agenda on subjects ranging from tax policy to health care and employment law to energy and environment. By being a chamber member, you have the opportunity to participate on a policy advisory committee and help determine the Chamber’s position on key pieces of legislation and initiatives, as well as set the Chamber’s legislative priorities.

The primary focus of the committee is on state-level issues under consideration in Lansing; however, the committee also addresses related federal issues.
