Another Business Group Says Vote No on the Amendment

The most recent business group to take a formal stand against the constitutional amendment to ban civil unions and gay marriage is the Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce.

They say the amendment hurts businesses trying to attract employees. From their release:

Laurie Benson, CEO of Inacom Information Systems and a GMCC Board Member, agrees. “As leaders, it is important that we understand the impact of our decisions on our workforce. In order to optimally position our businesses and our state for a thriving economy, we must remove any barriers that could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain exceptional employees in Wisconsin,” said Benson.

The GMCC joins Downtown Madison, Inc. in the business community's opposition to the amendment.
