Welcome to the Virtual Washington, D.C. Fly-In! On behalf of the Vegas Chamber, thank you for joining us for our first ever DC in LV Virtual Fly-in experience. Once again, the Vegas Chamber and the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance are proud to partner to represent one of the largest and most diverse delegations of business and government leaders on behalf of our state, this time virtually. For the past year, we have gathered your comments and feedback to ensure that our Fly-in is constantly evolving and responsive to your business needs and those of Nevada. We deliver on this promise by strategically connecting you to key policy makers, high-profile think tank organizations, and national trade associations. This not only gives you the latest information on key federal issues, but also keeps Nevada and the interests of our State at the forefront of policy making. Since our founding in 1911, the Vegas Chamber has remained steadfast in our commitment to our members and the business community as a whole. We have endured various trials and tribulations since our inception, nevertheless we have come out stronger than ever. This is demonstrated throughout the Chamber’s history of trailblazing with our federal policy advocacy which has led to our community’s most significant projects such as the construction of Hoover Dam, the establishment and expansion of McCarran International Airport, the designation of Interstate 11, and the creation of Tule Springs National Monument. Throughout this week you will connect with national renowned policy makers and experts who will discuss transportation infrastructure, international tourism, healthcare, economic diversification, gaming, workforce development, and education. During these conversations, our voice, as a unified and unwavering business community, will carry the needs of Nevada to our nation’s Capital. In addition to a comprehensive calendar of interactive virtual experiences, we are thrilled to offer you some exciting evening receptions at the world-renowned Wynn Las Vegas. Both our Welcome and Nevada State Receptions will adhere to strict CDC guidelines and will feature hors d’oeuvres, libations, and exciting conversations with some of the top business leaders in our State. By participating in our first ever DC in LV Virtual Fly-in, you have made an investment toward building a stronger future for Nevada. We, in turn, are proud to continue to champion the efforts of the business community on your behalf in Washington, D.C. Thank you for your time and devotion to our great State of Nevada. Sincerly,
Mary Beth Sewald President and CEO
