The Police Coalition of America PAC

The mission of The Police Coalition of America is to enact positive change and legislation that protects our citizens as well as our law enforcement. We endorse lawmakers that recognize the importance in enacting legislation that provides better police training and advocates for increased death and disability funds for those officers killed or injured on the job. While enhancing our law enforcement officers and related agencies with the proper training needed to safely conduct their jobs in a professional manner.

We will identify and back ANY lawmakers who will advocate for and stand with making our neighborhoods a safer place! That means backing our public safety officials AND our citizens of this great nation!

The Police Coalition of America PAC

white police officerSuper PACs, officially known as “independent-expenditure only committees”, may not make contributions to candidate campaigns or parties, but may engage in unlimited political spending independently of the campaigns. Unlike traditional PACs, they can raise funds from individuals, corporations, unions, and other groups without any legal limit on donation size.

According to FEC advisories, Super PACs are not allowed to coordinate directly with candidates or political parties. This restriction is intended to prevent them from operating campaigns that complement or parallel those of the candidates they support or engaging in negotiations that could result in quid pro quo bargaining between donors to the PAC and the candidate or officeholder. However, it is legal for candidates and Super PAC managers to discuss campaign strategy and tactics through the media.

The Police Coalition of America PAC web portal is intended to represent fundraising for Federal political candidates that have sponsored, co-sponsored or support legislation that supports our United State Law Enforcement professionals and their families.
