The mission of the Council of Government Affairs is to advocate for public policy that is in the best interest of business, encourage more efficient, less costly governments and to protect and educate members on key business issues. 

We are focused on serving the interests of our 1,800 plus business members in the public arena. From local ordinances to federal regulations, we work to make sure your collective voice is heard on every issue that affects local commerce and its interaction with the community. And we provide you with the information you need to become informed advocates as well.

Provided below is the 2011 Winston-Salem Chamber of Commerce Legislative Agenda that was approved by the Council of Governmental Affairs.  We use this document as a guide for public policy positions.  We share it with all of our elected officials and use it as a tool when we travel to Raleigh or Washington DC on your behalf.  We invite you to also use this document so that our business community may have a unified voice when advocating for these important issues.  Read here.
