How to Bring Advocacy Issues Forward to the Board

10/17/2022

0 Comments

 
INTERNAL REVIEW FORMAT
Any Information and Position paper submitted to the Board of Directors,

should meet the following Guidelines for Action:
1. Does the issue comply with the mission and values of the Chamber?

2. Is the issue business oriented, having an impact on the conduct of business in the Missoula area?
The Missoula Chamber represents the general business community and not specific business or industry interests.

3. Is involvement with the issue cost effective?
The Missoula Chamber may act on an issue if required resources can be justified, and if an obtainable goal may
be reasonably expected.

4. Is involvement with the issue a duplication of effort?
The Missoula Chamber may act on an issue individually or in cooperation with other organizations if it may be
demonstrated that its participation will enhance the efforts but should avoid being duplicative of other organizations or individuals


Advocacy Consideration Timeline:
Government Affairs Committee reviews requests, discusses and makes recommendations for the board of directors monthly. Board of directors discuss at regular meeting and take action if desired. With appropriate time to consider the issue, representatives from both sides of the issue may be invited to attend the board meeting and share with the board.

Send time sensitive advocacy consideration requests to Bob Homer at bobh@missoulachamber.com
