One state senator and four state representatives have confirmed their participation in the upcoming 2024 Fremont County Legislative Session Preview Luncheon being hosted by Fremont County’s three chambers of commerce. The luncheon will be held Friday, January 26 at the Lander Community & Convention Center between noon and 1:30 p.m. and is open to Chamber of Commerce members and the general public.
The luncheon will provide a first-hand account from the legislators themselves of what they have been addressing during the interim as well as share what issues they expect the Legislature will address come February when they meet to craft the 2024-25 state budget. A general Q&A will follow legislators’ individual comments.
“A goal of mine since taking over leadership of the Lander Chamber,” said CEO Owen Sweeney, “has been to stress to our members and the larger business community in Fremont County the importance of being connected to our local legislators. With TV news and talk radio, we’re overwhelmed with news from Washington, DC, yet decisions are being made in our own backyard that often have far more impact on us than what’s going on in DC.
“In addition to hearing from our legislators, it’s also a great opportunity to build relationships among the county-wide business community whose members are so spread apart. Legislators, business owners, and members of the public have expressed to us their appreciation of this event, and we are glad to host it for them. We invite everyone to attend.”
