TEDC Political Action Committee (PAC)

The TEDC PAC raises and distributes funds to political candidates and office holders who support a robust, competitive environment for economic development in the state. The TEDC PAC is bipartisan. Contributions are made through a collaborative decision-making process with ample opportunities for input from our members and TEDC leadership. Interested TEDC PAC members may attend fundraisers and help deliver contributions to their local representatives.

The TEDC PAC raises funds in two main ways. First, we ask for personal contributions from individual TEDC members. Second, we host fundraising events throughout the year, including our annual PAC auction held at the TEDC Annual Conference. You must first be a member of the TEDC before you may become a member of the TEDC's PAC.

Joining the TEDC PAC is a sound investment in your profession--and your community. For a small annual contribution, you can join together with your colleagues to support political candidates that share your commitment to economic development. To be a member of the TEDC's PAC, you must be a member of the TEDC. Although the TEDC PAC may not solicit or accept corporate contributions for political purposes, we can and do accept contributions from partner organizations for administrative purposes.
