Description
the Peabody Area Chamber of Commerece is joining RAM, NFIB and the Massachusetts Restaurant Association (MRA) for Small Business Day on Beacon Hill at the State House!
This year's program will stress the importance of meeting with your legislators in the State House to tell them, face to face, how their policies have a real-world impact on your small business. There are far too many policies that will harm the small business economy and lawmakers need to hear real stories from real business owners like you. Make no mistake, those who advocate for making it more expensive to run a business in Massachusetts are at the State House every day, pushing us further away from affordability and making it harder to compete. Now it’s your turn. Don't miss this exclusive opportunity to be a part of the solution!
