Two Ways to Make Rural Voices Heard

Monday | September 16, 2024
All News

America’s Electric Cooperatives PAC logo

America’s Electric Cooperatives is the non-partisan political action committee (PAC) of the NRECA. With nearly 35,000 donors who contribute, this PAC supports political candidates who support issues important to electric co-ops.

America’s Electric Cooperatives PAC allows electric co-ops to financially support federal candidates through personal dollars raised from co-op leaders and member-consumers. Your PAC contribution builds on our collective strength, which is grounded in the relationships between local electric co-ops, the communities they serve, and the candidates seeking to represent them.

For just a small amount a month, you can be sure your voice is heard in Washington, D.C. For more information on how to join, simply visit cooperative.com/pacdonation.

Contributions to the NRECA America’s Electric Cooperatives PAC are not tax deductible for federal income tax purposes. Contributions to America’s Electric Cooperatives PAC are voluntary and will be used for political purposes. You have the right to refuse to contribute without reprisal. Federal law prohibits contributions from foreign nationals who lack permanent resident status. Any contribution guidelines presented are merely suggestions. You are free to contribute more or less than the suggested amounts, or not at all. The NRECA will not favor or disadvantage anyone by reason of the amount contributed or a decision not to contribute. For more information on the PAC, please contact your local cooperative or the NRECA PAC team at 703-907-5799 or by email at pacteam@nreca.coop.

Voices for Cooperative Power logo

The PAC is just one tool in the NRECA's advocacy toolbox. Voices for Cooperative Power is a grassroots network of cooperative members who are giving input on energy policy decisions that impact co-ops and, by extension, our way of life. These advocates are also sharing about the ways cooperatives support communities and the value of the cooperative business model.

VCP’s main issue priorities include:

  • Access to reliable, affordable, responsible power
  • Support for co-op communities
  • Implementation of futuristic solutions for rural communities
  • Environmental stewardship

Visit voicesforcooperativepower.com to sign up to get regular updates with information on how to contact Congress and federal agencies, share your story about how energy policies impact you, and find links to connect with VCP on social media.
