Core competitive challenges to drive growth & prosperity

The economic health of the nation was a key component of the remarks with Donohue decrying a litany of new taxes being proposed by legislators and candidates for federal office. “If you are looking for a perfect recipe for that recession everyone is talking about, that's it—right there,” said Donohue.

Donohue also restated the Chamber's strong commitment to an aggressive legal reform agenda designed to stop frivolous and costly lawsuits that destroy jobs and retard growth and also called upon congressional leaders to jump start stalled free trade agreements so that American companies can compete internationally.

In an acknowledgement of the already heated Congressional and presidential contests, Donohue said the Chamber would clearly articulate its pro-growth business and jobs agenda and would use its extensive financial resources and grassroots network to promote those same ideas with candidates and voters across the country.

“The bottom line is this – we must stop the practices and policies that undermine economic expansion and start doing more to promote the principles of a successful 21st century economy,” said Donohue. “This is the message. This is the program. This is the commitment that the Chamber will carry forward to the American people.”

The U.S. Chamber is the world's largest business federation representing more than 3 million businesses and organizations of every size, sector, and region.
