The Greater Redding Chamber of Commerce’s Government Affairs Committee is your bridge between the business community and local government. Through open forums and candidate engagement, we tackle the issues that matter most to our business community. Economic growth, public safety, and fiscal responsibility. Join us at our next event to hear directly from local leaders, ask questions, and be part of shaping the future of our community.
