            All ACEC California members are encouraged to participate in Legislative Visit Day (LVD). After an issues briefing and advocacy training, members move to the Capitol where (at pre-arranged meetings with legislators or staff) they lobby for the organization’s positions on important issues. An evening reception highlights the event where members meet and greet decision-makers in a social setting to discuss the day and current events.

           The ACEC PAC is the political arm of ACEC’s advocacy national efforts. The PAC supports federal candidates (U.S. House &amp;amp; Senate only) from both political parties who support the engineering industry’s business agenda in Congress. ACEC’s PAC raised over $1 million annually in the past few years and is in the top 3% of all federal trade association PACs.
