IVCA-PAC has scheduled the next Public Policy Roundtable via webinar for Monday, April 13th from 4:00-5:00 PM.  The legislators and discussion topic will be announced shortly.  Legislators will include one Democrat and one Republican.

Register here.

For many years IVCA-PAC has hosted, for key Illinois legislators and IVCA members, small, informal lunches and dinners.  IVCA members have always found these events illuminating and a great way to  learn more about the individuals governing our state and the issues they face.  Likewise, the legislators appreciate hearing from our members the most important issues for business growth and job creation in the state.

In order to broaden access to these great discussions, IVCA-PAC hosted the inaugural IVCA-PAC Public Policy Roundtable via webinar.  Members can listen in to the discussion and pose questions to the panelists.

Our first discussion was held at 8 AM on February 24, 2015.  The primary topic for this discussion was Governor Rauner’s budget and the issues it will face in the legislature.   The webinar featured:

• David Stricklin of Stricklin & Associates (IVCA Government Relations consultant)
• Republican Illinois State Senator Chris Nybo
• Democrat Illinois State Senator Daniel Biss

• Public Employee Unions
• Diversity in Building Trades
• Worker’s Compensation
• Minimum Wage
