MAC PAC Reception
Tuesday, Feb. 3, 5-6 p.m.
Venetian Hotel
The main purpose of the MAC PAC (Mason Contractors Political Action Committee) is to help elect federal candidates to office-candidates who are pro-construction and who will give MCAA a fair hearing on industry views. Federal laws and regulations have a direct impact on you and your business. Because it is illegal for corporations or state chapter PACs to directly contribute to federal candidates or to political parties, MAC PAC allows you the opportunity to have a national impact on federal elections. Contributions raised at this event go exclusively to the MAC PAC. Funds will be used to support pro-masonry candidates in the next election cycle.
