State Advocacy Day &
State Legislators Recognition Reception |
|
|
Wednesday, June 18, 2008
Location: Sheraton Grand Sacramento / State Capitol Building / Mason's Restaurant
The State Advocacy Day program is modeled after the Metro Chamber’s successful Capitol-to-Capitol federal advocacy program. The Metro Chamber applies the same strategy of regional cooperation to advocacy at the state level because we strongly believe that the issues being discussed in the State Capitol significantly influence the economy and quality of life of residents and employers in the six-county Sacramento region. State Advocacy Day directly supports our ongoing policy work at the local, regional,
state and federal levels.
This day long program concludes with a State Legislators Recognition Reception at Mason's Restaurant.

In years past, topics have included land use, housing, flood protection, transportation and clean energy technology.
