Welcome to the
Maine State Chamber of Commerce!
Maine's rich history, vibrant communities, and unparalleled work ethic make our state a fabulous place to work and live. As the voice of Maine Business, we represent a network of 5,000 businesses of all sectors, sizes, and regions. We advocate on their behalf daily before the Legislature, state departments, and various levels of state government. We also offer many programs and partnerships to help you do what you do best ... run your business.
From day one, when the 124th Legislature began its work in early January 2009, this session has been challenging, with growing budget gaps, proposed cuts in state programs, and of course, the volume of bills that traditionally accompanies a long session. As they reconvene for the Second Regular Session in January 2010, we anticipate legislators will face many of the same difficult choices and complex issues as they did last session. And our team stands ready to work with them to carve out fair solutions for Maine employers and employees alike.
By supporting legislation that enables you to operate more efficiently and to invest in your employees and your company, we are proactively dedicated to making Maine an affordable and prosperous place to do business. We are also diligent in opposing legislation that will weaken Maine's ability to compete in a global and regional marketplace.
Rest assured - while you are working hard to make a living, we at the Maine State Chamber of Commerce are also hard at work supporting your ambition, tenacity, and Yankee ingenuity. Together, the voice of Maine business is strong and clear.
