Chamber Action Network

The Chamber Action Network (CAN), the Maryland Chamber’s grassroots program, is an alliance of Maryland-based chambers of commerce representing 22,000 employers statewide. This network of well-informed business advocates is committed to supporting the Maryland Business Agenda through grassroots advocacy in each legislative district throughout the state. CAN’s activities include

  • Promoting issues that are important to the economic well-being of Maryland businesses.
  • Coordinating lobbying activity with local chambers to stimulate economic development.
  • Striving to improve the economic climate by reducing the over-regulation and the tax burden placed upon businesses.
  • Educating the business community regarding legislation, regulations, how the political arena operates, and how to become politically involved in state and local government.
  • Informing elected officials and candidates for elected office of the concerns of the business community

CAN accomplishes its goals through the cooperation of its CAN Partners. The Maryland Chamber’s lobbying team monitors critical business issues in Annapolis, and sends reports and alerts to the other CAN Partners, who in turn disseminate the information to more than 22,000 businesses statewide. The CAN partners are able to mobilize local grassroots efforts in the home districts of the General Assembly members, leading to greater impact and improved results in Annapolis.
