Series of Cotton Council PAC Fundraisers Next Week
Next week, National Cotton Council (NCC) Political Action Committee (PAC), which is known as the Committee for the Advancement of Cotton (CAC) will hold three fundraisers in East Arkansas. The gatherings will take place from 4pm until 6pm in Manila (Monday), Marion (Wednesday), and Marianna (Thursday). At the meetings, staff of the NCC will offer policy updates and there will be opportunities for discussion on matters facing the industry.
Funds collected are utilized to support candidates for federal offices. The CAC contributes to candidates who are in positions to enact policies that the NCC supports. With a mid-term election cycle on the horizon in 2026, and many policy needs still pending, it's important that the NCC has sufficient resources available to drive positive policy outcomes for the cotton industry.
Individuals involved in or supportive of the cotton industry of Arkansas are invited to attend and encouraged to contribute to the CAC. We hope to see you there!
Suggested contribution levels are as follows: $1,000+ Host | $500+ Co-Host | $250-$500 Supporter.
