Categories:
CAPITAL MARKETS
Center for Capital Markets Competitiveness (CCMC)
Over the last 50 years, the U.S. capital markets have been the most attractive and best performing in the world, and this has provided the United States with tremendous economic advantages. Unfortunately, more than three years after the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, companies and markets face an environment with changing rules, shifting advice, new layers of cost, and duplicative compliance and bureaucracy. The Center's mission is simple: foster investment and growth in the U.S. economy and ensure the long-term viability and health of our capital markets.
CIVIC LEADERSHIP
Business Civic Leadership Center (BCLC)
BCLC's mission is to advance the positive role of business in society. BCLC works with leaders from business, government, and non-governmental organizations to address and act on shared goals.
FOUNDATION
National Chamber Foundation (NCF)
The National Chamber Foundation is the U.S. Chamber's independent, non-profit public policy think tank. We strive to provide service to policymakers and members by bringing them the highest level of discussion on cutting-edge issues.
EDUCATION
Institute for a Competitive Workforce (ICW)
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is working to ensure that businesses have access—today and tomorrow—to an educated and skilled workforce. Its Institute for a Competitive Workforce (ICW) serves as the primary bridge between the business and education communities.
ENERGY
Institute for 21st Century Energy
The purpose of the U.S. Chamber Institute for 21st Century Energy is to unify energy stakeholders and policymakers behind a common strategy to ensure that America's supply of fuel and power is adequate, stable, and affordable, while protecting national security, and improving the environment.
INFRASTRUCTURE
Let's Rebuild America
The Chamber will put money, people, research, programs, and strong political action around a sustained, long-term campaign to rebuild the economic platform of our nation. We will employ every resource at our disposal-our policy expertise, our lobbying clout, our grassroots capabilities, and our communications channels.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Global Intellectual Property Center
To meet the serious criminal and policy threats facing innovators, IP-based industries, and consumers, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce created the Global Intellectual Property Center (GIPC), which is leading a worldwide effort against the assault on IP.
LEGAL
Institute for Legal Reform (ILR)
The mission of the Institute for Legal Reform (ILR) is to reduce excessive and frivolous litigation while restoring fairness and balance to the nation's civil justice system by promoting civil justice reform through legislative, political, judicial and educational activities at both the national and local levels.
National Chamber Litigation Center (NCLC)

POLITICAL
VoteForBusiness
The mission of Vote for Business is to get business involved in politics.
SECURITY
Homeland Security
American business has a multifaceted stake in a strong national defense and a homeland security policy that safeguards Americans while also protecting their mobility, their freedom and their way of life. If terrorism or the threat of it chokes off our ability to move people and goods in a global economy, we will pay a tremendous price in growth and prosperity.
TRADE & INTERNATIONAL
International Division

Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE)
The Center for International Private Enterprise is an independent, non-profit affiliate of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. As one of the four core institutes of the National Endowment for Democracy, CIPE promotes democratic and market-oriented economic reform by working directly with the private sector in developing countries.
Space Enterprise Council
The Space Enterprise Council was founded in 2000 to represent businesses with a commercial interest in space. As a forum for space-related companies, the council brings the collective power of its affiliation with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and its diverse members into a single, unified voice that is used in advocating member interests to policymakers.
TradeRoots
Trade helps America and the world grow. Most businesses -- small and large -- know this. The challenge is to make sure that Washington and the rest of the country does too. TradeRoots is a sustained, national trade education program dedicated to building grassroots support for trade in the U.S. Congress and to stopping anti-trade protectionism.
The Chamber’s Global Regulatory Cooperation Project (GRC) seeks to develop new strategies that promote market-oriented policies with foreign governments. The business community must work together to look beyond tariffs and non-tariff border measures and adopt a holistic approach that captures the many different types of In-Country Barriers (ICBs) that impede trade.
