Prior Approval Information & Instructions

Federal Election Commission (FEC) regulations require PowerPAC to obtain written permission from an authorized representative of a member company to solicit voluntary contributions from employees.

Under the FEC’s definition of what constitutes a solicitation, without prior approval, APPA cannot share information about PowerPAC and its activities, strategy, and events with you; that’s why it is so important that you sign it.

This authorization does not bind you, your utility, or your employees to any financial commitment; all it does is allow us to communicate freely with you about PowerPAC.

A corporation may not approve solicitations by more than one trade association in the same calendar year.

Help us communicate with you about PowerPAC by completing the authorization form below.
