Advocacy

Maintaining a strong legislative interest and relationship with our elected officials has allowed the Wisconsin Dells Visitor & Convention Bureau to be actively involved and at the forefront of many of the state's tourism legislative initiatives and laws.

The Wisconsin Dells Visitor & Convention Bureau works with the Wisconsin and U.S. legislatures to help ensure a positive business climate for businesses in the Wisconsin Dells/Lake Delton area and we are actively involved in many key political issues currently challenging the tourism industry - some of them include:

• September 1st School Start Date
• Tourism Funding for our State
• Minimum Wage Indexing/Local Wage Ordinances
• Department of Transportation Funding

Our legislative representatives encourage feedback from their constituents regarding issues affecting the state, our region or the tourism industry.  Here are the legislators representing the Wisconsin Dells/Lake Delton area:
