Legislative Lunch Tomorrow

The Chamber Serving the Meeker County Area is hosting a Legislative Lunch tomorrow (June 9) at the Meeker Memorial Hospital Conference Center from 11-to-1:30. The 4 local Legislators from the area will be there to recap the 2026 Legislative Session and answer questions.

Chamber Executive Director Deana Wheeler says Representatives Dawn Gillman and Scott Van Binsbergen and Senators Andrew Lang and Glenn Gruenhagen will be there to mainly address topics of concern for local businesses. She says the Chamber does not attempt to be political, but they want to be an advocate for business interests.

Wheeler says the event is not an open mic forum and they have gathered some questions from local businesses in the areas of health care, energy & technology, the paid family leave act, barriers to rural agricultural funding and manufacturing challenges. She says there was a pre-registration period to get signed up, but they can still make room for more so call the Chamber office at 693-8184 or email litch.com for more details about the June 9th event.
