IEC National is actively involved in the legislation and politics revolving around our industry. Between the association’s Government Affairs department and the member-based Government Affairs Committee, the association works hard to ensure member companies remain in business and are able to operate in a free and open market. This involvement, however, comes with a price tag, which is why IEC National vigorously fundraises though the PRIDE PAC, and through a separate IEC Political Education Fund (PEF). Below you will find a side-by-side explanation of the difference between the PAC and PEF.
