@ILChamber CEO Todd Maisch: “This is not just important to one industry. This is important to the business community as a whole. The Chamber is a steadfast advocate for comprehensive immigration reform because it is imperative to IL and our country as a whole.” #immigration
Absolutely packed house at the @ILBizImmigrant event this morning. Unsurprising since folks like @ILChamber’s CEO, Todd Maisch, will be spreading the gospel of why employers of all sizes need workers of skills sets.
Did you know? 20% of IL business owners are immigrants & $2.6Bnet income by immigrant biz owners comes to IL. Powerful New American Dreams Forum event from our friends at IL Business Immigration Coalition. @ILChamber proud to join @JBPritzker, @SenatorDurbin & @RepGutierrez.
“The private sector has a unique and irreplaceable role in developing and financing new energy technologies and we should implement flexible policies that support that growth.” -@ILChamber Energy Council testimony before House Public Utilities hearing
@CCRSolar, @MOEnterprise, and @USChamber filled out panel with insight on supply chain needs and what customers are looking for out of energy development.
Where to start – thank you to the speakers, sponsors, & attendees for making #infraconf18 a huge success. Great to work with the @MissouriChamber to promote importance of infrastructure & regional cooperation. #stl#SoIL#winning Find out what you missed: https://t.co/5FsNbWAEYM
The third largest crude oil hub in the US, Patoka's Tank Farm shows just how important Illinois is to our nation's energy economy. Thank you to @MarathonPetroCo for the tour of your Patoka facility and all the work you do to keep energy moving safely.
Recognizing how tied our economy is to all different sources of energy – coal, oil and gas, wind, solar, hydro - is important to achieving a sustainable energy economy that benefits all of us as users. #infraconf18 energy panel coming up.
"Canada and US critical infrastructure isn’t just a good news story, it’s the best. The scale of our accomplishments together are immense, moving well over $200billion of goods across the border." – John Cruickshank, Consul General of Canada in Chicago @CanCGChicago#infraconf18
Our friends at the @MissouriChamber captured the assets that make the metro-east and St. Louis region critical to the national freight network. Thank you to @TRRASTL for hosting the business community and policymakers and providing an excellent tour of the region. #infraconf18
Fascinating tour of the infrastructure in metro-east St. Louis that connects the nation's economy. Looking forward to the rest of #infraconf18 with the @ILChamber!
