We’re a PAC – not your everyday political club.
What makes us different?
Our members decide how funds are allocated, and are kept abreast of results. The process includes all members and is completely transparent.
The reality is that money talks. We make powerful statements with our fundraising and contributions to key House, Senate and Presidential races nationwide
