About This Event
This annual event is a unique opportunity to bring a collective voice on regional and state economic priorities to Madison all at one time. In the first months of the new year, the Legislature will be tackling the 2025-27 biennial budget, which sets the spending and priorities for the Wisconsin over the next two years. At the Rally, we'll visit the State Capitol and deliver to lawmakers a shared consensus on issues important to the economy of the Chippewa Valley, including such areas as healthcare, education, talent attraction & retention, economic development, taxes, and transportation & infrastructure. Plus, we'll express thanks for previous priorities enacted during the past two years.
How it works
When you join us, you'll spend a productive day taking part in issue briefings, small group meetings at legislative offices, a keynote luncheon, and networking with others from our area who are interested in state government policy. You'll also be invited to online pre-event briefings to help you be prepared for a effective day in Madison. And don't worry if you've never participated before. Our legislative office meetings will be led by experienced previous attendees. Optional same day charter bus transportation is available. We also have special hotel rates at our headquarters Park Hotel for those who want to travel on their own and combine their trip with other business.
