What Virginia Chamber Members Have to Say
"Thanks to you and your team for its work in this year's assembly. The tax "discussion" was a substantial one and it's clear the Chamber's strong and consistent position on "modest and reasonable" new taxation had an effect on the ultimate outcome.
I'm pleased by the defeat of most of the proposals to impose sales taxes on business inputs. A sales tax on advertising would have put an unreasonable burden on our firm. That said, it's clear we must stay engaged in the future to ensure that the revenues raised by this measure keep Virginia an extremely attractive place to live, work, and own a business."
Scott Laughlin Director of Strategic Planning LM&O Advertising
"The more we look beyond the moment of today, the more it becomes apparent that you and I need to be informed, equipped, and poised for action to be successful in today’s complex and challenging business world.
Through the years, great leaders and notable entrepreneurs have agreed that “knowledge” (e.g., pertinent and accurate information) is power; the ability to affect change for a desired outcome. Without a doubt, the Virginia Chamber of Commerce is that place where “knowledge” is found, and where important relationships are forged. Our company joined the Chamber several years ago; and, that decision… has made all the difference!"
Julien Patterson President and CEO OMNIPLEX World Services Corporation
"Old Dominion and the Electric Cooperatives of Virginia look to our state chamber as the leading voice for the business community in our state. Over the years, the chamber has done an excellent job focusing the business message for our elected leaders and government representatives. This voice must continue to grow stronger and the state chamber is the organization to lead the way. The electric cooperatives fully support the Virginia Chamber through our finances and our participation."
Jackson E. Reasor President & CEO Old Dominion Electric Cooperative
