What is
PADPAC is a voluntary, non-profit group run by and for dentists.
As a bipartisan PAC, PADPAC is made up of dentists, their spouses
and anyone from all over Pennsylvania who is dedicated to
supporting legislators who value the profession of dentistry.
PADPAC, operating under strict state and federal laws and
regulations, is always watching the voting record of every member
of the House and Senate. Working with the American Dental
Political Action Committee (ADPAC), PADPAC promotes the
highest quality dental health of Pennsylvania and our nation,
while shaping the future of dentistry.
A political action committee (PAC) is an entity that combines
contributions from members and donates the funds to candidates
who share their interests and helps advance their legislative
agenda. By joining the Pennsylvania Dental Association Political
Action Committee (PADPAC), your personal financial contribution
is magnified and plays a pivotal role in elected state government
and ensures the practice of dentistry is represented by legislators
who will fight for the profession and for high quality dental care.
One of the main reasons dentists join PDA is for the outstanding
advocacy we provide. But in order to be effective advocates we
need a strong PAC to support legislators who support dentistry and
the patients we treat.
Assignment of Benefits used a lot of our resources and we need to
reload for this legislative session. If you’ve made a PADPAC
contribution this year, please build a brighter future and contribute
again for 2020.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO JOIN FOR 2020!
