The Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce/Associated Industries of Arkansas is the leading voice for business at the State Capitol and serves as the primary business advocate on all issues affecting Arkansas employers. Our mission is to promote a pro-business, free-enterprise agenda and prevent anti-business legislation, regulations and rules. We work on issues that affect state businesses and their employees around the clock. In Washington, D.C. and right here at home. The State Chamber is the advocate for business on issues such as tax reform, immigration reform, health care, regulatory issues, education and workers` compensation. Supporting the State Chamber is an investment in Arkansas`s future. By working with the State Chamber, businesses unite and achieve goals that simply would not be possible if each were working alone. The State Chamber understands that a competitive business environment is not possible without an educated and competitive workforce. Workforce development is a substantial and worthy undertaking, and continues to be a priority for us. Now more than ever, business matters to our nation`s future. Business must have a friendly environment to insure our future economic prospects. In the global economy, our competitive capacity must be all it can possibly be – and the State Chamber works every day to make that happen.
