Political Action Committees (PACs)

ACEC PAC

The ACEC PAC is operated by our national association, the American Council of Engineering Companies of NC. It is used to support candidates for Congress, and collects funds from all 51 state MOs. ACEC/NC is a collection agent for this PAC and sends all contributions to the national association for the administration of the PAC’s contributions and disbursements. You can see how much our national PAC raises by visiting the acec.org website, and you will find “ACEC PAC” under the advocacy tab. Last year, ACEC/NC set a record for the most funds contributed by members to the national PAC.

The 2025-26 ACEC PAC Champion is Patrick Waterman

     


CECNC PAC

The CECNC-PAC is the state PAC of ACEC/NC. Just like our national PAC, it helps us identify and support allies who share our views on AEC issues, but in the NC General Assembly.

Your state PAC is governed by a Board of Trustees, who conduct fundraising activities, file reports to the Board of Elections, and make decisions on which candidates to fund. While we try to make our fundraising events enjoyable for members, you can also contribute any time by using the button below. Member firms are prohibited from directly contributing to the PAC, however, member firms can help with fundraising expenses by contributing on their dues invoices in the appropriate place.
