    The Greater Dallas Chamber builds prosperity through economic growth and public policy. We unite the regions business community.

  • to our membersIn 2003, the Greater Dallas Chamber continued its leadership role, working on issues that affect the prosperity of our region and its businesses. Led by our Board of Directors and hundreds of volunteers, DFW made significant strides on such critical issues as air quality, transportation, education and economic development.

    Our support for the new Texas Enterprise Fund helped launch Texas Instruments announcement of its new $3 billion silicon wafer plant and $50 million in state dollars for new technology jobs and research.

    Despite a slow economy, 20 companies chose DFW for expansion and relocation last year, creating more than 12,100 total new jobs, including jobs in the Southern Sector. Inquiries from interested corporations remain strong.

    We successfully promoted full funding for the Texas Emissions Reduction Plan, a critical program for Dallas-Fort Worth to improve air quality and retain transportation dollars.

    Strong campaigning by Chamber leaders played a significant role in voter approval of a record $555 million bond issue for growth and improvements in Dallas that will help revitalize the infrastructure for business and spur Southern Sector development.

    Our support for tort reform led to voter approval of a constitutional amendment limiting non-economic damages. This will help insure that we stay competitive in offering affordable health care.

    In an era of tight state budgets, we pushed hard to maintain funding for higher education in the region. Thanks to support from Chamber leaders, total new funding in higher education exceeded $200 million.

    We formed a task force to support reform in Texas public school funding. To build tomorrows workforce, Chamber volunteers donated thousands of hours to educational programs such as Texas Scholars.

    Our members, employing one-third of DFWs workforce, make up the regions largest business and leadership group. They continue to bring energy, focus and direction to answer our regions challenges. As the uniting force in the region, we remain the advocate for business, dedicated to regional prosperity.

  • quality of lifeDefining Issues

    The Chamber works to increase prosperity in the region. Tough issues impact the growth of every business, and the regions economic health.

    Leadership by the Chamber helped produce increased state and federal dollars for transportation; funding for DFW air quality programs and research, and approval of tort reform.

    Chamber committee volunteers gave thousands of hours to intensely studying issues, shaping the Chambers business-oriented positions, educating the regions residents, and working with officials and allies to craft solutions. Some key issues and results:

    Air Quality Standards Successfully lobbied for legislation that provides incentives to

    retrofit or replace air-polluting equipment Secured funds for DFW air quality research Continued work with regional allies on a plan for DFW to reach

    federal air quality standards Worked through the North Texas Clean Air Coalition to educate

    business and the public on strategies to clean up the regions air Continued work with the statewide Texas Clean Air Working Group

    Traffic Congestion Successfully lobbied legislators to fund the Texas Mobility Fund,

    which creates a financing tool for DFWs highway system Helped pass Proposition 14 to fund highway improvement projects

    Chamber President Jan Hart Black speaks to news media at an Austin press conference, urging lawmakers to focus on cleaning up polluted air and funding road construction.

    The Chambers Congressional Forum brought together local leaders Dr. Gerald Turner of Southern Methodist University, a Chamber board member, and U.S. Rep. Martin Frost.

  • legislative agendaUniting Business

    The Chamber actively lobbies local, state and federal lawmakers on the issues that are critical to DFW business. Chamber leaders make the regions legislative agenda a year-round focus.

    To be sure that Dallas area business is heard, the Chamber meets regularly with lawmakers to express regional concerns, hosts forums on business issues, works with local mayors and city councils, and speaks regularly before government agencies.

    Throughout the 78th Texas Legislature, Chamber leaders and volunteers lobbied early and often for action on the regions business agenda:

    DFW Clean Air Plan Successfully lobbied the Legislature to fully fund the Texas

    Emissions Reduction Plan (TERP), including research and incentive grants

    Tort Reform Successfully lobbied lawmakers to approve medical malpractice

    reform, and helped pass a constitutional amendment to allow capping of non-economic damages in lawsuits

    Higher Education Gained approval of more than $200 million in new funding for

    higher education in the region

    Texas Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, center, briefed the Chamber on the 78th Texas Legislature.

    As of Dec. 1, 2003

    The Chamber, Texas Instruments Chairman Tom Engibous, and Gov. Rick Perry worked together to bring TIs planned $3 billion silicon wafer plant to the Dallas area.

    Recruitment efforts by the Chamber helped create more than 12,000 direct and indirect jobs that will pump $955 million into the local economy.

    The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is the where, with all.

    The Chamber has carried that message to hundreds of companies since the introduction of the DFW regional brand in 2002.

    Working daily with economic development groups throughout the region, Chamber leaders market DFWs many assets at trade shows, during trade and investment missions to other countries, and in sessions with corporate leaders, real estate executives and site consultants.

    The Chamber played a major role in the creation of the new Texas Enterprise Fund. The programs first success: an initial $50 million for technology research and faculty recruitment at the University of Texas at Dallas. The funding was a key to attracting Texas Instruments planned $3 billion wafer fabrication plant and its 1,000 new jobs. Long-term impact in the region: $13.2 billion.

    By aggressively marketing the region to business prospects, the Chamber helped 20 companies choose Dallas-Fort Worth for expansion and relocation last year. The bottom line: 12,100 new direct and indirect jobs, including 1,800 in the Southern Sector, that will pour $955 million into the regions economy.
