Political Action Committee

District Council 9’s Political Action Committee (PAC) is a membership-driven committee, designed to help members get involved in the political process. Members learn about the candidates, elected officials, and City & State Agencies that shape the political and legal landscape in which we work. By empowering members to become politically involved, DC 9 aims to educate politicians at the city, state, and federal level about the challenges facing workers in the construction world. Members of the PAC also participate in Get-Out-The-Vote (GOTV) actions and member-to-member engagement in the lead-up to elections.
