The Dakota County Regional Chamber of Commerce--in partnership with the Minnesota Retailers Association--offers real-time information and resources on cutting-edge legislative issues impacting businesses through an exclusive Legislative Breakfast Series.
These monthly breakfasts deliver business community members first-hand perspectives from influential lawmakers and leading industry experts on how legislation at all government levels affects the bottom-line, job creation, growth and expansion.
As a popular benefit, the Series allows participants to shape the conversation through a real-time opinion poll, as well as an opportunity to communicate concerns, comments, and questions.
