The Hollywood Chamber’s PAC initiative advocates for businesses in Hollywood

 

Hollywood Chamber Political Action Committee:

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce works to ensure the business community in our region is thriving, and the voice of business is elevated. One of the greatest tools in our efforts to accomplish those goals is the Hollywood Chamber Political Action Committee (PAC). The mission of the Hollywood Chamber PAC is to support and elect business-friendly candidates who align with our vision and goals. Our political action committee serves as the political strength of the entire Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and its members.

Through the strategic work of the PAC, we are able to provide support for candidates who show their ability to provide common-sense solutions to issues facing our City today and who take into account the delicate balance of worker protections and employer support. It is critical for Chambers of Commerce to lean into their Political Action Committees and support the work they do, which in turn will strengthen the entire business community.

Endorsing candidates and putting money behind those endorsements can mean the difference between a business-friendly candidate being elected or re-elected and a candidate who does not understand the complexities of keeping Angelenos employed and allowing our business community to thrive. Policies at City Hall, the County Hall of Administration, and in Sacramento are introduced every day, and it is more imperative than ever to have elected officials in office who understand the important role our Chamber has in keeping our businesses’ doors open and enabling our employers to keep providing good-paying jobs in Los Angeles.

The Hollywood Chamber PAC has worked diligently to build a strong board, raise funds to help support our goals, and endorse candidates we believe will further the goals of employers and ensure businesses of all sizes are able to recover from the pandemic. Our work to strengthen the influence and reach of the Chamber’s PAC is critical to the day to day operations as a Chamber of Commerce as the Chamber’s staff and members meet with public officials, their staff, and those who have a direct impact on the laws, rules, and regulations that impact Chamber members and our broader business community.
