Political Action Committee (PAC)

About the Academy’s PAC

A Political Action Committee (PAC) is an organization representing a specific group and their interests by raising funds to support the political campaigns of key legislators.

For over twenty years, the Academy’s PAC has supported members of Congress who are committed to advancing opportunities for audiological practice and other hearing health care initiatives.

Top Ten Reasons to Give to the PAC

We have created new donor circles with special giving incentives for high donors. By increasing member contributions to the PAC, together we can achieve the Academy’s advocacy goals.

1. If you’ve ever received a paycheck for being an audiologist.
2. If you believe that you have a profession, not just a job.
3. If you support action to achieve passage of the Medicare Audiologist Access and Services Act, as well as other legislative priorities.
4. If you’re tired of other professions dictating what we can and can’t do.
5. If you think your degree is worth being known as more than just a tech.
6. If you want to send the message that our profession matters.
7. If you want to be able to say “I gave already” when the PAC Advisory Board calls.
8. If you have never given and think it’s important to maintain a presence on Capitol Hill.
9. If you want to make a difference in your profession.
10. Because in Washington you’re either at the table or you’re on the menu.
