The Greater Ocean City Chamber of Commerce has an active Legislative Affairs Committee, along with a professional lobbyist who works on our behalf in Annapolis. We meet weekly during session to discuss upcoming bills and make decisions on the chambers position. Please review our weekly updates and feel free to contact us if you know of any bills that may affect your business.
