Monrovia Chamber Government Affairs Committee

Monrovians - Unite!  Here is a great opportunity to participate in shaping our city.

MONROVIA CHAMBER GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS COMMITTEE

Part of the mission of the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce is to keep members informed on legislative issues that may affect their everyday business activities.  Chamber staff handles numerous requests on a daily basis, directing members through what can seem like a bureaucratic maze.  We work closely with the city of Monrovia and other government entities to serve the interests of the business community.

Karin Crehan, Executive Director, and Bob Helbing, Chair of Government Affairs, actively represent your business interests through a variety of avenues.  For example, Crehan is a member of the San Gabriel Valley  Legislative Coalition of Chambers, who meet monthly to discuss issues that may directly affect how you do business in Monrovia and the region.  Crehan also regularly attends and keeps abreast of Metro Gold Line Extension Authority information.

The Government Affairs Committee is informed on legislative activity at the local, state, and federal levels.  Local business members, representatives from the city of Monrovia, Supervisor Antonovich, Assembly Member Holden, Senator Liu, Congresswomen Chu & Napolitano, the League of Women Voters, along with the Monrovia Unified School District assemble monthly at the Chamber to discuss current legislation that can influence your business.

The Chamber welcomes you to get involved and join it for the meetings.

This committee meets the second Tuesday of the Month at 8:00 a.m., all committee meetings are held in the conference room at the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce, 620 S. Myrtle Ave., Monrovia, CA 91016, unless otherwise noted.
