Business leaders came together in late April for the inaugural West Michigan DC Fly-In to talk about issues of critical importance to our region. The group's primary focus was to provide a West Michigan perspective to Congress on issues such as healthcare, tax reform, transportation and the Great Lakes. 
Governor Rick Snyder joined representatives from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in Lansing last month as well to brief Chamber leaders from around the state on legislative priorities for the upcoming year. The briefing included a report on the economic competitiveness of Michigan compared to other states.
