Government Affairs Committee

Chairman: Bob Brady, Moog, Inc.
Vice-Chair: Mike Hughes, Kaleida Health

The Government Affairs Committee (GAC) of the Buffalo Niagara Partnership focuses on how to advance the business community's goals with local, state and federal governments. The GAC regularly meets with elected officials, drives the Partnership's candidate endorsement and evaluation process, and provides counsel on government relations strategy aimed at achieving the objectives of the Partnership's NOW Campaign and Regional Agenda.  The committee also sponsors events that give Partnership members access to the region's elected officials (Congressional Briefings, Legislative Luncheon, Buffalo Niagara Night in Albany, Public Officials and Staff Reception and more).
