Advocacy Overview
The Buffalo Niagara Partnership’s advocacy efforts are broad and far-reaching on behalf of our members.
- An experienced government affairs team focuses on economic development policy and business advocacy at all levels of government.
- Our advocacy efforts inform government leaders about the impact of their actions or inactions on local employers and their employees.
- We track legislation and mobilize coalitions in support or opposition of specific policies.
- We work to reduce burdensome regulations and bureaucratic red tape.
I was very impressed with resources the Partnership employed to help influence this important legislation.
