A PAC is an entity established for the purpose of supporting candidates and elected officials that stand with workers, regardless of party affiliation. It is funded primarily through voluntary donations from a restricted class, with the IATSE PAC exclusively made up of the members of the IATSE. No outside or third-party interests are permitted to make donations to the PAC.
Under the IATSE, their legislative advocacy is focused on member priorities, advancing legislation that:
- Protects our right to organize
- Expands our collective bargaining rights
- Defends our pension funds and health care benefits
- Enforces strong copyright protections to protect creative content
- Preserves and expands federal funding for the arts
- Expands job opportunities in our industries
- Advances equity, diversity, and inclusion
The IATSE is currently working on the implementation of a federal tax incentive for the entertainment industry, as a response to runaway productions overseas. Your support of the PAC Fund will directly benefit the pursuit of this initiative, impacting hundreds of thousands of IATSE workers nationally.
