POLITICAL ACTION COMITTEE (sl pac)
What is a PAC?
A PAC or Political Action committee is a 501(c)(6) voluntary nonprofit, which receives contributions to use for political purposes, such as making contributions or independent expenditures to support or oppose candidates and ballot measures, or making contributions to political parties and other state and local campaign campaign committees as outlined by the California Fair Political Practice Commission.
About the SLPAC
Founded in 2011, the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce Political Action Committee seeks to endorse business-oriented candidates at the local, county, and state levels who would be elected based on their platform to support the San Leandro business community. These candidates must be proven to support fiscally responsible government, the free enterprise system, and understand the important role businesses play in the economic prosperity for San Leandro.
Getting Endorsed
Every election cycle, the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce Political Action Committee endorses candidates in races critical to San Leandro's future. The endorsement process includes a review of candidate statements/materials, a candidate forum, and candidate interviews. The SLPAC believes that individuals elected to public office have a direct and significant impact on the business community, shaping the quality of public services, job opportunities, and the overall economic landscape of the city. We encourage those who share our commitment to the business community to consider public service and engage with the Chamber of Commerce.
