"Kevin Sunday, Dir. Govt. Affairs at PA Chamber"
 

"Infrastructure Policy"

As a member of the government affairs team for the PA Chamber of Business and Industry, the largest broad-based business advocacy association in the state of Pennsylvania, Sunday manages legislative and regulatory issues for energy, environmental and infrastructure policy, including matters relating to air, waste, water, land use, natural resources, power generation, transportation and transmission. He has helped secure passage of recent key environmental legislation at the state level and helped shape the development and implementation of various energy and environmental regulations.

Sunday has testified on these issues before Congress, the Pennsylvania legislature, EPA and FERC and regularly provides the Chamber's perspective on such matters to leading regional print and broadcast media outlets. Sunday regularly files comments and testimony on behalf of the Chamber on key regulatory and legislative matters to various state and federal agencies, working in concert with the various members of the Chamber to develop consensus positions on such matters.

Prior to joining the Chamber, Sunday led media relations and communications for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and held a senior role with a communications firm.


Sunday is chairman of the board of directors for the American Red Cross Central Pennsylvania Region and is a magna cum laude graduate of Towson University.

He lives in Mechanicsburg with his wife, Heather, and their two sons.
