Political Advocacy for Manufacturers

RETURN TO ADVOCACY

MISSION

The purpose of the TMA PAC is to elect to office candidates committed to consistently and aggressively advancing and supporting public policy that supports small and mid-size manufacturing through limited government, reduced regulation, lower taxes, free markets, and fairness.

VALUE

​The TMA PAC allows small and mid-size manufacturers to collectively invest and magnify their campaign donations in order to benefit from the inherent advantages of working as part of a group. Those benefits include:

Management: The TMA PAC is professionally run by skilled staff, which offers investors more information, better service, and increased ROI.

Economies of Scale: The TMA PAC provides its members a level of political influence and respect generally reserved for major, individual donors.

Diversification: The TMA PAC allows it members to multiply and diversify their political investment portfolio.

​Oversight: Unlike other PACs, a diverse committee of TMA members manages the PAC – ensuring investments are based on real criteria rather than relationships or quid pro quo.

RETURN ON INVESTMENT

The TMA PAC provides significant ROI to participating members, including:

One: Top-line data on state legislative, county, and local campaigns, which allows one to avoid the time-consuming work of candidate vetting and analysis.

Two: Ability to outsource/direct candidate communications and requests to the TMA PAC as one’s political investment manager, or government affairs team.

Three: Leveraging of investment with other manufacturers to multiply one’s electoral effectiveness and increase candidate/legislator accountability.

Four: Regular intelligence and reports about recommended candidates, their campaign, financial status, and polling.

Five: Assurance that one’s political investment is being handled ethically and efficiently by a reputable, pro-manufacturing institution
