CAI Political Action Committee (PAC) Illinois is here! Your contribution to CAI-PAC Illinois WILL make a difference!

Elected officials in Illinois’s General Assembly & the Executive Branch make decisions impacting our owners’ investment and our businesses’ bottom lines. We can no longer afford to be spectators in the political process.

NOW is Your Chance to Participate in a Big Way & Continue the Momentum! DON’T WAIT – DONATE/PLEDGE TODAY!

What is a PAC? A political action committee (PAC) collects voluntary contributions from individuals and businesses who share common interests, and makes contributions to the political campaigns of candidates for office. PACs provide their members with several advantages:

 hundred dollars to a single campaign can instead give that money to the PAC, and be part of larger, more impactful contributions to multiple campaigns.

 for us as an industry to support the election, re-election and continued service of elected officials who understand our issues. The CAI PAC Illinois is the best way for us to come together and do that.

 have a say in who those officials are in the first instance—by ensuring that the best candidates have the resources they need to run winning campaigns.

Many competing trade associations have large PACs (realtors, homebuilders, bankers) and have been at it a long time. The CAI Illinois Legislative Action Committee knew we could not wait a moment longer and needed to get started now! The creation of CAI-PAC Illinois requires each of us to step up - on an annual voluntary basis - to give and raise funds for the campaigns of good candidates for the Illinois General Assembly.

Don’t sit on the sidelines – give or pledge TODAY!! Members are stepping up in a BIG way – and we need YOU to do the same.

As our industry is subjected to greater scrutiny & more burdensome regulations, your donation is an important investment in Illinois communities.
