"Stuart Goodrich is a candidate of the highest quality," said Michigan Chamber President and CEO James Barrett. "He is pro-business, pro-jobs and pro-taxpayer. His position on the issues, his deep commitment to helping the people in his district and his business experience will make him a great State Representative."

The current State Representative is ineligible to run for re-election due to term limits.

The 68th House District includes parts of the city of Lansing and Lansing Township as well as the townships of Alaiedon, Aurelus and Delhi in Ingham County.

"Job creators here and across the state look to the Michigan Chamber as a leading voice on business issues," said Stuart Goodrich. "I am pleased to receive their endorsement and their confidence."

The Michigan Chamber of Commerce represents approximately 7,000 businesses, local chambers of commerce, and trade associations. With members of every size and type in all 83 Michigan counties, the Michigan Chamber represents a broad cross-section of the state's economy.
