Legislative Affairs Committee (LAC)

The mission of this committee is to facilitate the gathering and dissemination of information resulting from Government and public actions and to make recommendations for Chamber action and/or advocacy related to these issues. The Chamber is non-partisan, but offers forums to keep its members well informed on hot local issues and may, on occasion, publicly endorse candidates who represent the best interests of the business community.

Military Affairs Committee (MAC)

The mission of this committee is to enhance liaison, communications, and support between the Sierra Vista Area Chamber and Fort Huachuca, thereby, improving the relationship to our combined civilian and military community. This committee also gives businesses the opportunity to recognize the hard work of the service men and women on Fort Huachuca during the monthly M.A.C. Luncheon, and it also provides support to the Fort’s annual awards banquet.
