LRCC | Lansing Regional Chamber Receives 5-Star Reaccreditation from U.S Chamber

Michigan Business Network: LRCC announcement

 LRCCcroppedLANSING, MI – The Lansing (LANSING, MI) The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has awarded the Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce (LRCC) a 5-Star reaccreditation for its sound policies, effective procedures, and positive community impact. Nationwide, only 187 chambers are accredited, with just four in Michigan. Local chambers are rated as Accredited, 3-Stars, 4-Stars, or 5-Stars. State chambers are recognized as either Accredited State Chamber or Accredited State Chamber with Distinction. 

The LRCC believes that making the TCJA permanent would prevent a potential $4 trillion tax increase on American businesses and families, while ensuring long-term economic stability and encouraging future investments. By adopting a current-policy baseline, Congress can secure the tax relief businesses need to continue making investments that will drive growth and productivity in the economy.

“We recognize that thoughtful tax policies can fuel economic growth and improve fiscal responsibility,” said Tim Daman, President & CEO of the Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce. “Extending the provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will give businesses the certainty they need to make long-term investments, create jobs, and strengthen communities across the country, including here in the Lansing region.”

The LRCC is committed to supporting legislation that fosters a competitive business environment and promotes economic prosperity for businesses of all sizes. The extension of the TCJA provisions is critical to maintaining the progress that has been made in job creation and wage growth in recent years.
