2010 Legislative Objectives

Each year, AWB staff, under the guidance of our members and committees, develops a set of legislative objectives. These objectives are designed to guide the association’s advocacy efforts in key policy areas. They are our guiding principles as we advocate for a better business climate during the 2010 legislative session in Olympia.
