It is the belief of the Tucson First Coalition that the Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and its leadership have failed the local business community.
The Chambers failure has resulted in a hostile business environment, overbearing government, complicated land use codes, and inflated business costs.
An ineffective Tucson Chamber of Commerce has diluted efforts and minimized businesses influence on the political process.
Tucson First Coalition believes that the Tucson Chamber of commerce leadership and management has lost the faith of local businesses, public officials and the community. (Full Position Statement…)
