Advocacy
PartnersNet

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 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
