Wrinkle just opposes the chamber on the local business use of undocumented labor.
...that's just one aspect of their "One Voice" Program. And, it's related to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. They seek for us to adopt their entire agenda. If you've read it, there's more than one issue there, tort reform, Opportunity Fund, PreK-12 funding, Emergency Management Fund, Workers' Compensation, Aerospace Infrastructure funding, et al. I doubt anyone can suggest they agree 100% with everything there.
All things equal, why would the Chamber even care about this issue unless their members reaped profit from it?
I'm also a little curious as the process the Chamber went through to establish their platform. Did they even poll their membership, for example?
When you pay your membership fee, do you have to just adopt the bait, line and sinker to join?
The Hotel Tax monies are not for membership, they're for services. If they feel they can perform those services, great. Just do it.
