Business and Community Advocacy Council Meeting: State Budget Update with Ax Advocacy

Alex Rahn, Principal at AxAdvocacy (AxAdvocacy | The Business of Winning) and a trusted partner of the Greater Reading Chamber Alliance (GRCA) and the Pennsylvania Economic Development Association (PEDA), will provide a timely advocacy update following the reopening of the passage of Pennsylvania's state budget.

Alex will highlight the key state policy developments impacting businesses, economic development, workforce initiatives, and funding opportunities, while offering insights into what employers and community leaders should be watching in the year ahead.

The Business and Community Advocacy Council (BCAC), hosted by the Greater Reading Chamber Alliance (GRCA), serves as a collaborative network for public and private business professionals to engage in impactful advocacy. BCAC focuses on educating members about the policy-making process, identifying emerging policy issues, and fostering active participation in local and statewide advocacy efforts. By promoting pro-business advocacy statements, BCAC empowers members of all sizes to navigate and shape the legislative landscape effectively. We do this by utilizing GRCA?s Pro-Business Advocacy Statements to guide the collaboration and coalition building that leads our advocacy work.

To those interested in joining the BCAC outreach list, please reach out to GRCA's Director of Advocacy, Alex Roche (aroche@greaterreading.org), for more details.
