Southwest California Business Coalition Launches Improved Advocacy Service

 

Founded in 2004, the Southwest California Legislative Council is the regional business advocacy coalition for the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce, Murrieta Chamber of Commerce, and Lake Elsinore Valley Chamber of Commerce. I am proud to serve as the coalition's fourth chair.

 

All of the work we have accomplished via www.SouthwestCaliforniaAdvocacy.biz is now available to you in our redesigned Web-based advocacy service, www.SouthwestCA.biz. In the coming months, we will introduce new services and make it even easier for you to play a role in our advocacy efforts.

 

All of our work is made possible by the support of our regional partners: Southwest Riverside County Association of Realtors, Economic Development Corporation of Southwest California, Temecula Valley Bank, The Gas Company, The Murrieta Temecula Group, Arrowhead Credit Union, Near-Cal Corporation, Rancho Ford Lincoln Mercury, Metropolitan Water District, Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District, Abbott Vascular, Retail Development Advisors Corporation, Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce, Murrieta Chamber of Commerce, and the Lake Elsinore Valley Chamber of Commerce.
 

Finally, I want to thank YOU for your involvement in our efforts to represent the interests of the Southwest California business community with government.

 

Wishing you the very best,

 

 

Greg Morrison, 2008 Chair
