Montana Chamber Business Days

The Montana Chamber of Commerce is holding its business days at the capitol Thursday and Friday at the Great Northern Hotel and the State Capitol.

The event, which began early this morning, is an annual meeting that hosts members from across the state.

They discuss a broad range of issues relating to workers comp, health insurance and fiscal condition. Webb Brown, President and CEO of the Montana Chamber, says bringing in a panel to help facilitate discussions and answer questions is very beneficial. Brown also says having the congressional delegation present helps bring a different viewpoint as well.

"You know it really is our opportunity or their opportunity for us to give them a chance to tell us what they like to have us hear.  We do have all of our congressional delegation Max Baucus, John Tester, Denny Rehberg.  So we're very fortunate to have that," says Brown.

Brown says while registration is up from last year, all of the snowfall may play a part in the actual attendance numbers.
