Why RIICA members need to support our Political Action Committee Fund...
All members of RIICA have been subjected to local, state
and federal government laws and regulations.
Some of these laws and regulations have been good for our industry and some not so good. If we, as contractors, don't make the effort to
inform our elected government officials on issues that affect our businesses, our livelihoods and our families then who will? As an association, we must work at preventing legislation that is
detrimental to our industry while introducing and supporting legislative initiatives that improve our business environment. This is why RIICA maintains the RIIC PAC.
Contributions to
RIIC PAC made by individuals and family members (no corporate money allowed) are kept in the PAC checking account and distributed based on advice from our lobbyist and approval by committee
members.
RIICA along with our lobbyist: (1) monitor legislative Bills and hearings, (2) testify on behalf of the association, (3) support elected officials that have supported our
positions, (4) do not support opponents of our positions and initiatives.
If you agree that your association needs to maintain an active, ongoing lobbying effort to represent our
interests then I trust you also agree that this effort needs to be funded. Your personal contribution of any amount -- $10, $25, $50, $75, $100 up to $200.00 -- can be made out to
RIICPAC and sent to PO Box 7254, Warwick, RI 02816. Your contribution will support the legislative efforts of your industry.
