On April 12, Chamber President and CEO, Shannon Full; Moorhead Mayor, Shelly Carlson; and Clay County Commissioner, Jenny Mongeau hosted a Minnesota business roundtable with over 35 area leaders to discuss priorities specific to Clay County. The purpose of this roundtable was to hear directly from Chamber members, business owners and citizens.

Many attendees emphasized their deep passion and desire to operate their business and live in the greater Moorhead area but reiterated their concerns with looming legislation being considered in the state's Capitol. Topics such as Commercial Drivers Licenses, economic development, infrastructure, taxes, regulation, Paid Family and Medical Leave and a number of other issues surrounding business and community vitality were raised throughout the discussion.

The Chamber remains committed to working with our elected officials at both the state and local levels to advocate for sound business policy and promote a vibrant business climate through Minnesota.
