The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is the world's largest business federation representing the interests of more than 3 million businesses of all sizes, sectors, and regions, as well as state and local chambers and industry associations. More than 96% of U.S. Chamber members are small businesses with 100 employees or fewer.
As the voice of business, the Chamber's core purpose is to fight for free enterprise before Congress, the White House, regulatory agencies, the courts, the court of public opinion, and governments around the world.
From its headquarters near the White House, the Chamber maintains a professional staff of top policy experts, lobbyists, lawyers, and communicators. Special initiatives covering energy, infrastructure, education and training, and workforce rules drive the pro-business agenda.
The Chamber is also active in shaping legal policy through its in-house law firm, the National Chamber Litigation Center (NCLC), and through the Institute for Legal Reform (ILR).
The Chamber's International Division collaborates with more than 100 American Chambers of Commerce in countries around the world. The Chamber also runs the Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE), a program of the National Endowment for Democracy.
Through its growing network of grassroots business activists, the Chamber educates voters, turns out the business vote, and helps drive legislation on Capitol Hill. The Chamber consistently leads the pack on lobbying expenditures.
In the past year, the Chamber hosted more than 2,500 programs and forums with various participants, including members of the administration, members of Congress, and dozens of international leaders.
Most recently, the Chamber launched American Free Enterprise. Dream Big., a comprehensive, multiyear campaign to support free enterprise through national advertising; grassroots advocacy; citizen, community, and youth engagement; and research and ideas leadership.
