2009 Richardson Chamber Directory to Reach 25,000 Households
Richardson is home to 100,000 residents and even more who work, play and shop in this city. Are they aware of your business?
As part of an effort to support local retail businesses and encourage those who live and work in Richardson to shop locally, the Richardson Chamber of Commerce has once again partnered with the publisher of Richardson Living magazine to produce a resource directory. Unlike the 2008 directory, this guide will be focused on the Richardson consumer.
Legislative Update
The Richardson Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors recently passed a resolution opposing a piece of legislation being considered by the U. S. Congress. The “Card Check” Legislation or the Employee Free Choice Act, if passed, would cause workers to lose their right to a secret ballot in union elections and government employees will decide what benefits and wages employees receive. “Card Check” would make union organizations as easy as signing up a majority of workers, thereby removing the private elections necessary for current union formation. This lack of oversight and anti-democratic dissolution of private elections would leave workers susceptible to coercion and intimidation.
If you are opposed to this legislation, it is very important that you contact your U. S. Congressman as well as those congressional representatives you know in other states as soon as possible.
