Exposed by CMD: The Chambers of Commerce

Caught on video!

A recent webinar provided to CMD shows how a top GOP polling firm documented that the overwhelming majority of business executives in states across the country actually support key workplace reforms that the chambers of commerce.

The GOP pollster LuntzGlobal's polling of a thousand business executives shows that huge majorities of business leaders actually support:
• raising the minimum wage
• paid sick leave
• predictive scheduling
• expanded family medical leave
• and paternity leave

In response to that strong support for progressive policies, Frank Luntz's firm told the lobbyists who lead the state chambers how to overcome the empathy of their business members and appear reasonable in trying to defeat these popular policies.

So whose special interests do the chambers of commerce really represent?
