BIDDING
FOR BENJAMINS
NUCA of Florida President Jordan Lee, Utility Service Company, has established
a new program to help fund our statewide political contributions entitled “Bidding
for Benjamins.” The premise is simple: when your company is awarded a bid or new
project, pass on $100 (a.k.a. a Benjamin) or more if it’s a really big project to NUCA of
Florida to be used exclusively for political contributions to candidates that will support
our industry issues. If every contractor, supplier, manufacturer and professional
associate would take on this challenge, NUCA of Florida could successfully increase
their political clout in Tallahassee. We will keep a running tally on the Bidding for
Benjamins program and the winner will have bragging rights. Additionally, PAC Chair
Tony Zebouni has committed to creating a prize to be awarded at the 2018 Annual
Conference, July 12-15 at Ocean Reef, Key Largo. Tap into your competitive spirit and
help us grow our PAC for the 2018 election cycle. Be sure to participate in the Bidding
for Benjamins PAC challenge. Checks should be made payable to NUCA of Florida and
mailed to NUCA of Florida, 113 East College Avenue, Suite 200, Tallahassee, FL 32301.
