Amplify Our Voice Through Advocacy
This committee educates members on NAWBO’s public policy priorities, coordinates legislative visits on behalf of the Chapter, and fosters relationships with local and regional policymakers. The goal is to ensure our members’ voices are heard and represented on issues that impact women business owners.
Learn more about how NAWBO has been the voice of women business owners, making sure we are at the table with key decision makers on Capitol Hill and speaking out on the issues that are most important, plus empowering our chapter leaders and members to do the same in their states and communities across the U.S. To best represent the diversity within our membership, all the business advocacy issues we engage in are bipartisan in nature.
