P.A.C.

The CSFA Political Action Committee (PAC) is a voluntary, political action committee committed to improving and protecting the floral industry in California.

The purposes of a PAC are: (1) To promote and strive for the improvement of government by encouraging and stimulating members of the industry, and others, to take a more active and effective part in state and local government affairs. (2) To encourage members of the floral industry, and others, to understand the nature and actions of their government. (3) To assist members of the industry, and others, to organize themselves for more effective political action, and for carrying out their other civic responsibilities. (4) To finance political efforts supporting California Legislative and constitutional officeholders, candidates (but not Federal officeholders, candidates or committees) that benefit the public by improving and protecting the floral industry in California.

There is an urgent need to establish and maintain our industry as a strong, concerned and active political force. The quality and nature of laws, rules and regulations affecting your business and your pocketbooks are determined by elected officials. Your contributions through the PAC, when combined with many others, can affect who is elected - who will write the laws. The PAC will financially assist candidates who demonstrate a realistic approach to solving the problems of our industry and its related businesses. There is strength in numbers. A contribution from CSFA PAC speaks for our industry. Elected officials seldom overlook a large, involved well-informed constituency.
