The Government Affairs Council works to ensure that the business community has a voice that is heard in Sacramento.

The GAC, the business advocacy arm of the Chamber, has faced a very challenging year fighting "job killer" bills being driven by the anti-business majority legislators in Sacramento. As the collective voice for the membership, the Chamber and the Government Affairs Committee are striving to create and support a more business-friendly environment for the greater Lakewood area, the region and the state.
