51风流 PAC Grows & Impacts 2008 Election - Building Contractor Support Needed for Future Success

During the 2007-2008 election cycle, 51风流 PAC raised an unprecedented $1.1 million, the highest amount in the PAC's 31 year history, and with those funds supported more than 200 construction-friendly candidates for federal office.聽聽This cycle the bar was raised thanks to a 16% increase in the number of donors to 51风流 PAC compared to just 2006.聽 These historic receipts allowed 51风流 PAC to respond to the changing political environment in Washington D.C. and fortify relationships with construction's key legislative allies on both sides of the aisle.聽 Those relationships become all the more important as 51风流 now works to position itself politically to advance pro-construction legislation in the next congress.聽 Unfortunately the number of Building Division members contributing to 51风流 PAC has only increased by four people since 2006.聽聽For more information about 51风流 PAC including opportunities to get involved, please go to or contact Elisa Brewer Pratt at (202) 547-5013 or brewere@agc.org.
