U.S. Chamber of Commerce 100 Years Standing Up for American Enterprise
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is the world’s largest business federation representing the interests of more than 3 million businesses of all sizes, sectors, and regions, as well as state and local chambers and industry associations. More than 96% of U.S. Chamber members are small businesses with 100 employees or fewer.
As the voice of business, the Chamber’s core purpose is to fight for free enterprise before Congress, the White House, regulatory agencies, the courts, the court of public opinion, and governments around the world.
Now in its 100th year, the Chamber continues to be the rallying place for American business, building strong support for policies that strengthen our economy, create jobs, and enhance American competitiveness.
From its headquarters near the White House, the Chamber maintains a professional staff of the nation’s top policy experts, lobbyists, lawyers, and communicators. Special initiatives focused on energy, infrastructure, education and training, intellectual property protection, and workforce rules help drive the pro-business agenda.
The Chamber is also active in shaping legal policy through its in-house law firm, the National Chamber Litigation Center (NCLC), and through the Institute for Legal Reform (ILR).
The Chamber’s International Division works in collaboration with more than 100 American Chambers of Commerce in countries around the world to expand markets for American goods and services and facilitate increased trade. The Chamber also runs the Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE), a program of the National Endowment for Democracy.
Through its growing network of grassroots activists, the Chamber makes a tremendous impact by educating voters, generating support for pro-growth policies, and advancing legislation on Capitol Hill.
The Chamber’s Campaign for Free Enterprise is a comprehensive, multiyear campaign to support free enterprise and entrepreneurship through grassroots advocacy; citizen, community, and youth engagement; and research and ideas leadership.
Over the past year, the Chamber hosted more than 2,500 programs, meetings, seminars, and forums with participants including senior domestic and international government leaders and some of the nation’s top CEOs.
