The Neponset River Regional Chamber, along with more than a dozen other employer groups and their members will converge on Beacon Hill this Thursday.
Last year at Small Business Day, business owners from across Massachusetts sent a strong message to Beacon Hill legislators that their concerns matter too.
Once again, many of the state’s leading business organizations and chambers of commerce will gather to help educate policymakers on the issues most important to your small business.
The session will include briefing panels featuring experts on topics including Restrictive Scheduling, Teen/Training Wage, Energy Costs, Paid Family & Medical Leave, Transportation Infrastructure Funding and Controlling Small Business Health Costs.
The Keynote Speaker for the day is Senate President Karen E. Spilka. Several other legislators will also be in attendance.
Too often the voice of business goes unheard on Beacon Hill as so many business owners are at work running their companies. It is important for all businesses that one day a year we are able to magnify the voice of the business community to ensure that our elected leaders understand how their decisions impact business and what the ramifications of those decisions can look like in the real world.

President and CEO
