When attending a Political Action Committee (PAC) event, you may notice that personal checks are preferred for contributions. Here's why:
Political contributions are regulated by federal and state campaign finance laws, and PACs must follow strict guidelines on who can contribute and how those contributions are made. Personal checks help ensure compliance, as they clearly demonstrate that the donation is being made by an individual—not a business or organization, which may be restricted or prohibited from contributing to PACs depending on the law.
Using a personal check:
✔ Confirms the donation is from an individual
✔ Helps with accurate reporting and transparency
✔ Avoids potential campaign finance violations
Your support makes a difference—and using a personal check is a simple way to ensure it’s received properly and legally. Thank you for helping us advocate effectively and responsibly!
