In 2024 the AAO Political Action Committee is celebrating 30 years of providing support for candidates running in federal elections whose priorities align with the AAO’s. We are starting the 30th anniversary year after an exciting and record-breaking achievement in 2023. From January 1- December 31, 2023, AAO members contributed $456,796 to the AAOPAC- surpassing the previous all-time record in 2018 by over $100,000!
AAOPAC contributions are received by lawmakers who have supported the AAO’s priorities, or may do so in the future, such as by introducing and co-sponsoring bills for which the AAO has advocated.
As we build these positive bi-partisan relationships, we also find that federal elected officials help with state efforts via their relationships with colleagues in their state governments. This means that AAOPAC helps fuel advocacy success not only in Washington, D.C. but in states across the country as well.
Consider giving a 30th anniversary gift to AAOPAC and start the new year off right:

According to the Federal Elections Commission, contribution levels have been reset to zero in 2024 and all eligible AAO members can give up to $5,000 over the next 12 months. You can establish recurring monthly or quarterly payments and know that you are making a difference for our AAO public policy priorities.
