The Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce realizes it is an exciting time to be a part of the greater Lake Travis area! We continue to see both new challenges and new opportunities as economic growth around the Lake Travis area propels us forward. These times are dynamic and call for us to be more diligent in working together as we advocate for the needs of our business community.

The Lake Travis Chamber strives to be a fair, insightful and impartial resource for voters in both elections. We encourage voters to educate themselves and to know your vote.

This year we have two candidate forums for Lake Travis ISD School Board and the Lakeway City Council. The decision was made based on venue availability, moderator availability, timekeeper availability, Chamber staff availability, and in consideration of the Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce event calendar. The Chamber will not host a candidate forum for uncontested races.

Advocacy is of utmost importance to the Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce, the largest business association in the greater Lake Travis area. We represent nearly 400 members and thousands of jobs through our membership. Chambers of Commerce have authority under state and federal law to represent our members in public policy debates. We may lobby and take positions on actual or proposed legislation. Chambers may legally endorse candidates for public office and/or ballot propositions.

The Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce has historically not endorsed political candidates and will not be using this forum to do so.
