Last week (May 11, 2023), Salem Chamber staff and Business Advocacy leaders attended Chamber Day at the Capitol hosted by the Oregon State Chamber of Commerce.
Our members, along with members from chambers around the state, received updates on issues impacting business from Representative Lucetta Elmer (HD 24), Senator Janeen Sollman (SD 15), and Representative Shelly Boshart Davis (HD 15). We also received an update on the Governor’s housing investments from Housing and Homeless Initiative Director Taylor Smiley Wolfe.

During the day, Representative Kevin Mannix (HD 21) recognized the Salem Area Chamber of Commerce from the House Floor during his time to extend courtesies. Watch Rep. Mannix’s address here:
