Alan Zakin

Chair: Alan Zakin, Alan Zakin Associates, alan@alanzakin.com
Alan also chairs the Morris County ELC (Employer Legislative Committee)

Mission: To monitor and address legislative and public policy issues at the local, state and federal levels of government as they relate to the interests of business and economic development in Morris County and among chamber members and to draft and recommend to the board of directors positions on such issues to be adopted and promulgated to appropriate government officials, the membership and the public.

The Government Affairs Forum provides all chamber members and the business community with a voice in matters that impact their interests. At each meeting, legislators, cabinet members or local officials will discuss important issues pertinent to business.  Members gain access to office holders who attend as guests and speakers. This group also formulates positions on important legislative issues.

In addition, forum leadership helps shape our public policy programming that includes the Washington Update, which features our United States Congressional representatives, and the Legislative Luncheon, which features our state and local elected officials. These programs offer members of the business community the opportunity to interact with and ask questions of their representatives.
