​At the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce (TRCC), we believe that legislative advocacy is vital to fostering a pro-business environment that encourages job creation in the Toledo Region. At last Friday’s Summer Legislative Reception, presented by Charter Communications, over 120 attendees enjoyed a beautiful morning at the National Museum of the Great Lakes getting face-to-face time to ask questions of our elected officials and learn more about the issues that might affect their businesses. This event helps strengthen the relationships between our private and public leaders with the goal of promoting economic growth and prosperity throughout our region.

Like others in the region, the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce was encouraged by the announcement of the creation of the Route 23 Connect Initiative a year ago. This initiative of the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), along with regional partners at the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) and Toledo Metropolitan Area Council of Governments (TMACOG), was designed to determine the feasibility of a free-flowing connection between the Columbus and Toledo regions. Improving the connection has been a long-standing priority for the Chamber, TMACOG and others.
