Legislative Affairs

Supporting Legislative and Military Relationships

The Government and Military Affairs Department serves to support government and military relationships in the Lawton Fort Sill area. There are active committees for Military Affairs and Government Affairs.

Legislative activity includes two legislative lunch forums with state and federal delegates, a Day at the Capitol and Legislative Reception in Oklahoma City, and an annual fly-in to DC to meet with a host of legislators and dignitaries to promote the government affairs agenda. Every year the Chamber conducts membership surveys and organizes focus groups to develop agendas to provide direction in their advocacy efforts.

Military Affairs focuses on permanent party members of the Fort Sill community by creating events that allow business leaders to interact with the leadership on the installation. These events are brigade level appreciation and business networking opportunities for both Fort Sill and Lawton community members respectively. An annual event is the Armed Forces Day Parade to honor our military.
