We are pleased to welcome Chairman Jordan Harris, Chair of the Pennsylvania House Appropriations Committee, as our special guest.

The Business and Community Advocacy Council (BCAC), hosted by the Greater Reading Chamber Alliance (GRCA), serves as a collaborative network for public and private business professionals to engage in impactful advocacy. BCAC focuses on educating members about the policy-making process, identifying emerging policy issues, and fostering active participation in local and statewide advocacy efforts. By promoting pro-business advocacy statements, BCAC empowers members of all sizes to navigate and shape the legislative landscape effectively. We do this by utilizing GRCAs Pro-Business Advocacy Statements to guide the collaboration and coalition building that leads our advocacy work.

To those interested in joining the BCAC outreach list, please reach out to GRCA's Director of Advocacy, Alex Roche (aroche@greaterreading.org), for more details.
