The United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) is teaming up with the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) to host a virtual Candidate and Legislative Forum on October 8, 2020.
At this critical moment in American history and in our own missions, we are inviting the candidates to address the issues that impact our black and brown communities. We want to hear their vision for confronting the current Coronavirus health crisis and its devastating and disproportionate effects on the minority business community and our ability to participate in the American economy.
This will be a non-partisan candidate forum.
We are committed to bringing together a diverse national audience composed of the membership of both the NMSDC and the USHCC vast network of more than 250 Hispanic Chambers across the country, 23 NMSDC Regional Councils, Hispanic Business Enterprises (HBEs), over 12,000 Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs), Fortune 2000 corporations and other national partner organizations with their respective constituencies.
Minority Economic inclusion is one of the most urgent issues in this election. Together, the minority businesses we represent contribute over one trillion dollars to the American economy every year.
The Forum will include the following:
Segment 1 – President/Vice President Candidate Session
Segment 2 – Legislators Roundtable
Segment 3 – Policy Thought Leaders Discussion
Additional speakers are being confirmed and will be added to the next email and will be added to the registration site automatically.
