What is a State PAC?

A State Political Action Committee (PAC) is an organization established to raise and spend money to influence state-level elections, legislation, and public policy. State PACs operate within a specific state and focus on local and state government offices, including state legislatures, gubernatorial races, and other local positions and issues.

Purpose
The primary purposes of a State PAC include:

Supporting Candidates: NAPAC GA contributes to the campaigns of state and local candidates who align with our interests or policy goals.

Influencing Legislation: NAPAC GA will lobby for or against state legislation, aiming to shape public policy in favor of our community interests.

Promoting Issues: NAPAC GA raises awareness and support for specific issues or causes within the state, often through funding advertisements and grassroots campaigns.

Electioneering Communications: NAPAC GA may engage in activities that support or oppose candidates and issues, including TV ads, mailers, and digital campaigns.
