"Advocacy Matters" | Ginny Cross (United Corpus Christi Chamber)
In this episode of United We Podcast, we sit down with Ginny Cross, Vice President of Advocacy at the United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce, to unpack the Chamber’s annual “CB to DC” trip. Ginny shares how this important advocacy effort brings the Coastal Bend’s story to the nation’s capital—amplifying the voice of local businesses, strengthening relationships with elected officials, and driving meaningful policy outcomes.
From past successes in military support and regulatory reform to new strategies like forming issue-specific advocacy teams, Ginny explains how the Chamber’s work extends beyond its members to represent the entire Coastal Bend economy. We also explore why connecting with leaders outside the Texas delegation matters, and how community input ensures every concern is heard—even for those who can’t make the trip.
Tune in to learn how united advocacy in D.C. helps secure a stronger future back home in Corpus Christi.
