https://www.uschamber.com/press-release/us-chamber-congratulates-president-elect-biden-pledges-help-break-through-gridlock

.."We congratulate President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on having been declared the winners in this historic election.  

“The U.S. Chamber stands ready to work with the Biden administration and leaders on both sides of the aisle to restore public health, revitalize our economy, and help rebuild American lives and communities.  
.....
“While there may be differences of opinion on how to best move forward, our nation must rally around the common cause of recovery. On this, there can be no division. We stand ready to help break through the gridlock and help get things done through collaboration and good governance. 

“Job number one must be pandemic relief.  American small businesses cannot afford for Congress to wait another three months to act. We stand ready to help our leaders get this much-needed legislation passed as quickly as possible.
...
“This is a pivotal time for our country, our economy, and for generations of Americans. We not only face the tremendous burden of overcoming a pandemic and recession, but also a historic moment to unleash a new era of inclusive growth, widespread opportunity, and boundless innovation.”(more)

While C of Cs always support the pro-business and almost always republican point of view, this is a positive public statement.
