Mission Statement of the Government Relations CommitteeThe purpose of the Elks Government Relations Program is to help protect our Order’s right to exist as a private organization. Legislative bodies at the National, State, and local level often consider legislation which would negatively impact our exercise of this freedom. Additionally, there are areas where fair and appropriate legislation would enhance our community and charitable work. To effect this, Elks need to be aware and need to establish positive relationships with their legislators — local, state, and national. - Government Relations Manual, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, © 2004, reprinted 2008
