Texas Association of Business

The Texas Association of Business is the state’s leading business advocacy organization and the Texas State Chamber of Commerce. Our primary responsibility is to represent the interests of our members at the Texas State Capitol by advancing policies that support a competitive, free market business climate.

TAB serves as the unified voice of Texas employers, representing companies of all sizes and across all industries.

Our mission is to champion the best business climate in the world, unleashing the power of free enterprise to enhance lives for generations.

We work to ensure that business perspectives from every region of the state are reflected in the policy process.

Engage | Advocate | Compete

In addition to advocacy, TAB convenes business leaders and industry partners through policy committees, issue specific programming, and statewide networking opportunities.

These forums allow members to engage directly with one another, share insights, and help shape TAB’s policy priorities.

We take a practical, ethical, and member driven approach to advocacy. TAB regularly engages its membership to gather feedback, identify challenges, and collaborate on solutions. This process ensures that the policy initiatives we advance are informed by real world business experience and aligned with the needs of Texas employers.
