Wyoming Chamber Political Action Committee (PAC)

The Wyoming Chamber’s success at the State Capitol doesn’t happen by chance — it’s powered by the Wyoming Chamber's Political Action Committee (PAC). Our PAC is fueled by your generous contributions, which enable us to support pro-business candidates who champion economic growth and free enterprise. With your backing, we can continue building a stronger, more business-friendly Wyoming.

Why does the Chamber have a PAC?

Every decision made in the halls of government impacts the way Wyoming businesses operate, from taxes and regulation to workforce development and infrastructure. The Chamber PAC helps ensure that the people making those decisions understand and support the needs of job creators. Whether you're a small business owner or part of a large company, the policies shaped at the capitol affect your bottom line. With your help, we can ensure that the voice of business is not just heard, it's represented.
