The State Legislative Summit is modeled after the Metro Chamber’s successful Capitol-to-Capitol federal advocacy program. The Metro Chamber applies the same strategy of regional cooperation to promote at the state level because it strongly believes that the issues at the State Capitol significantly influence the economy and quality of life of residents and employers in the six-county Sacramento region. The State Legislative Summit directly supports the Metro Chamber’s ongoing policy work at the local, regional, state and federal levels.
