Small Business Owners Council

The Chamber’s Small Business Owners Council will meet with Assemblywoman Carrie Woerner, on Monday, February 8, at 8:30 a.m, via Zoom.
Pre-registration is required. Attendees must be the owner of the small business to participate.

Assemblywoman Woerner is a member of the Assembly’s New York Economy Workgroup. The members of this workgroup are meeting with small business owners across the state to develop a set of legislative initiatives that will remove impediments to businesses restarting and growing post-COVID.

The small business owners on the call will be asked to talk about obstacles that exist to them starting their businesses back up fully, including but not limited to: regulations and regulatory agency actions; financing; infrastructure; COVID testing, PPE and other safety precautions for employees, customers, clients; Internet access; childcare limitations; availability of skilled workers; and how the public can be encouraged to re-engage in public activities like shopping and dining again.
