ACEC/PAC has already raised more the $500,000 in 2014, the earliest the PAC has reached this threshold and more than $100,000 ahead of last year’s record-setting pace.
More than 30% of the funds collected to date are from new contributors—demonstrating ACEC/PAC's broadening base. Seven states—Indiana, South Carolina, Delaware, Hawaii, Wisconsin, Tennessee and Nevada—have already met their ACEC/PAC annual goals. Three more states are poised to cross the finish line this month.
ACEC/PAC funds provide the Council with timely political resources during this election year. With the Highway Trust Fund Fix still on the table in this Congress, the need for strong support of ACEC’s advocacy program is greater than ever.
In a recent Washington Post article on campaign finance, ACEC/PAC was singled out as a "big business" contributor, along with Merck and Norfolk Southern.
ACEC/PAC will again have a strong presence at the upcoming ACEC Fall Conference in Waikoloa, Hawaii. The annual golf tournament will be on Tuesday, October 21, and Wake Up with ACEC/PAC is scheduled for Thursday, October 23. Click here for more information.
