Texas will gavel in the 88th legislative session in early January and the session will run until May. The Texas LGBTQ Chambers of Commerce has been working behind-the-scenes to plan for the Day at the Capitol and on a collective legislative goal: to add the LGBTBE® Certification to state contracting to ensure that LGBTQ+ businesses are recognized and included.  

Representation matters in state contracting and ensuring the LGBTQ+ business community has a seat at the table.  
 
Texas needs an inclusive economy where all businesses can succeed, grow, and thrive. We want to fight for the best business environment and to attract the best and brightest workforce in the country.  
 
Our efforts come to a head on in February 14th for the Texas LGBTQ Chambers of Commerce "Day at the Capitol".  We need your participation to ensure the LGBTQ+ and Allied business community is represented during the legislative session.  Help us spread the important message that Business is Business!
