WHAT IS A PAC?

Political Action Committees (PACs) are subsidiary organizations established primarily to raise and donate money to candidates for political offices. The bipartisan ISRI PAC uses your monetary contributions to help fund campaigns for Members of Congress who are in key positions to influence policies concerning the recycling industry.

BE AT THE TABLE, NOT ON THE MENU

Influence requires a presence at the decision-making table.

ISRI PAC complements the work done by ISRI’s Federal Advocacy team by ensuring that a bipartisan slate of congressional lawmakers have the resources to pursue or remain in office working as champions on behalf of ISRI, putting our interests at the forefront of their legislative priorities.

ISRI PAC amplifies the voice of our members.

ISRI PAC incentivizes lawmakers to represent the industry’s interests. Otherwise, our voices may be drowned out of the discussion, or worse, your business needs are passed over in favor of other interests whose contributions help keep those lawmakers in office. Essentially, your contributions greatly help to augment the advocacy that ISRI staff and our members do with lawmakers.
HOW DO YOU MAKE AN IMPACT?

ISRI PAC is singularly focused on your business and furthering our members’ policy priorities.

To that end, contributions are directed to policymakers in both parties – those who consistently prove their willingness to represent the industry and who are in positions to influence policy in support of recycling, prioritizing those in leadership positions on key committees of jurisdiction.
