ASAE PAC FAQs
How does ASAE PAC support candidates?
ASAE PAC supports candidates for election to the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate by contributing to their election funds with personal voluntary contributions from eligible ASAE members or with contributions made to ASAE PAC from other federal PACs. Under federal election law, contributions from associations or corporations cannot be accepted.
Does ASAE PAC favor any one particular political party?
ASAE PAC is independent and bipartisan and gives to both political parties. Candidates are supported based on their support of our issues and involvement with relevant committees (decisions about which candidates to support are guided by ASAE PAC’s giving guidelines, as approved by the ASAE Board). The ratio of giving shifts from cycle to cycle and may reflect the current political makeup of Congress.
Where does my contribution go?
Your contribution to ASAE PAC goes directly to supporting candidates in their election bids. Your contributions do not pay for administration, expenses, or fundraising costs. Except for taxes on interest income, which is required by law to be paid out of ASAE PAC funds, all of your contributions are used to directly support candidates in their individual races. ASAE PAC does not support leadership or national committees or leadership PACs.
