The Chamber offices will be closed on Monday, May 25, in observance of Memorial Day.
Over the last eight weeks, life has changed a great deal, especially in terms of what is on peoples’ minds. Right now, it is more important than ever to build a more robust immune system. The reason I know this for a fact is that I recently recovered from a 3-week battle against Covid-19, proving that anyone — even someone without underlying medical conditions — is susceptible to an immune system attack like the Coronavirus.

Chamber Task Force Advocates "Back to Business" Plan
On Monday, May 18th, a Morris County Chamber of Commerce Task Force led by Senator Anthony M. Bucco (NJ-25) and Bruce Groves, CEO of Emilcott & Associates,  released a new report and business industry risk scorecard -  It’s Time to Get Back to Business in Morris County  - to provide guidance to the State of New Jersey on how best to safely reopen business  operations with proper mitigation measures. 
State Senator Anthony Bucco (NJ-25) will be forwarding the plan to the Governor and legislative leaders encouraging the Murphy Administration to review and adopt its guidance. Bucco will also use insights gained from the conversation with business owners to advocate for additional changes across state government.
Said Gov. Murphy , who had not yet seen the plan:  " Morris County Chamber of Commerce is a really robust and vibrant Chamber.  I’ve had the honor of speaking with them and their leadership is very good. I don’t have specifics as to their plan and I’d be very happy to get a look at it. ... We’re trying to manage risk here as well and so I applaud them for their effort.   As good as their plan might be, maybe we’ll learn something from it. "
