Do you have the EDGE… to get involved?
Interested in how you can make a difference in our region? Join Metro EDGE for exclusive access to the Sacramento Metro Chamber’s State Legislative Summit where you’ll have the opportunity to get involved and learn about ongoing policy work at the local, regional, state and federal levels.
No advocacy experience? Or, looking for the insider EDGE? New this year, the Metro Chamber will pair EDGE members with senior leadership for one-on-one mentorship during the advocacy day. We’re also helping you to pick up the tab, the first 15 Metro EDGE members to register will receive $50 off registration fees*!!
The State Legislative Summit is modeled after the Metro Chamber’s successful Capitol-to-Capitol federal advocacy program. The Metro Chamber applies the same strategy of regional cooperation to promote at the state level because it strongly believes that the issues at the State Capitol significantly influence the economy and quality of life of residents and employers in the six-county Sacramento region.
This half-day program concludes with the Capital Region Legislators Reception to honor the newly elected state constitutional officers and locally elected leaders from Sacramento's capital region.
