Marty Wilson Heading Over to the California Chamber of Commerce

The California Chamber of Commerce is beefing up its political team ahead of the 2012 elections, hiring veteran GOP strategist Marty Wilson to lead its campaign operations.

Wilson, who recently served as a top strategist for Republican Carly Fiorina’s 2010 U.S. Senate bid, has left his day job as founding partner of Wilson-Miller Communications to become CalChamber’s vice president of public affairs.

CalChamber CEO Allan Zaremberg said in a statement that Wilson will “play a key role in CalChamber’s focused efforts to identify and support pro-jobs candidates from both political parties who will work to improve California’s economy.”

Marty has been involved in California politics for decades. He will bring an experienced and energetic approach to the California business community and their dealings with California government.
