“We greatly appreciate the service of our NKY Legislative Caucus during this past legislative session,” said John Nienaber, the NKY Chamber’s Vice Chair of Public Affairs. “We look forward to working with them during the interim to help educate the business community and the Caucus about the needs to advance pro-business legislation in the 2020 Session to improve our overall business climate.”
