Active engagement in the
political life of our community by employers and their employees can make a
big difference to your business, as well as for our overall business climate
and quality of life. MCCC helps our members get active, be effective and
make a difference.
The 2002 elections in
Montgomery County were a prime example. MCCC took a lead role in organizing
local businesses and their employees to stand up and demand serious
solutions to our growing traffic crisis. As a result of our efforts, two
long-time incumbent members of the Montgomery County Council who had stood
in the way of real traffic relief were defeated in their re-election bids.
Now we see key projects like the Montrose Parkway, the InterCounty
Connector, and the Inner Purple Line moving forward. Our member’s active
involvement made the difference.

this year’s elections, see our Voters Guide below.
