Conduit/WisPAC Update February 2018

ACEC WI News,

Help ACEC WI get off to a great start in 2018 by contributing to your conduit early. We anticipate a frenzy of activity related to state elections this year; the full Assembly, half the Senate and the Governor are all up for election. In 2015-16, ACEC WI members smashed their previous numbers. 2017-18 can be even better.

Conduit and WisPAC contributors will receive more frequent updates on the state budget and our advocacy efforts this year from President Chris Klein. If this interests you and currently are not participating in the Conduit and PAC please do so here:
