Give yourself a gift this holiday season that will magnify your voice and your influence.
For the millions of small- and medium-sized businesses in America, the machinations that take place inside the Washington beltway may feel like stories of aliens on another planet. The issues are always more complex than the TV sound bites allow for, the actual policy documents require a Greek translator to decipher, who knows how any piece of legislation will actually affect your business and even if you did know, what could you do to influence the legislation one way or another?
Well, this holiday season I have solved all your problems.
Two years ago a new organization, the American Sustainable Business Council (ASBC), entered the political landscape. Our goal: to enable small- and medium-sized businesses to quickly understand the issues and policies so that they may determine how they would be affected. Most importantly, the ASBC magnifies the voice of responsible businesses in America through conversation with the media, lobbying through the Democracy Collaborative and even via meetings inside the White House (this past year, we met with Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis. Read more about it in this blog post).
Representing more than 110,000 businesses and more than 300,000 individual entrepreneurs, owners, executives, investors and business professionals across the United States, the ASBC is an advocate for sustainability, corporate responsibility, and social equity.
So, what are you waiting for? Join us, or support us today. You will be investing in the future of America – and your own future, too. (A $100 donation might be the best gift you can give to our future and for as little as $500 you can join and become a member.)
