Advocacy
We are a strong voice advocating on your behalf to reduce the negative impact of regulations. Whether you are dealing with a local, state, or federal issue the Chamber is here to advocate on your behalf.
Advocacy:
Always an ally and voice for business
A roundtable event hosted by the Dawson County Chamber is just one of the many ways the chamber works to be an advocate and ally for its members.

Dawson County Chamber of Commerce is committed to being the voice of business.
The Chamber advocates on behalf of our membership and community at the local, state, and national level to promote a business-friendly atmosphere. The Chamber also advocates on issues specifically impacting the Dawson County community.
Each year, the Advocacy Committee creates a legislative agenda that is presented to our legislators.
Some of the ways the Chamber advocates locally are:
- Candidate Forums
- Mayoral Debates
- Public Meeting Attendance
