Member company voluntary resources support ABA’s advocacy efforts

ABA Members continue to step up their support of this initiative. Because of that, key ABA tools such as Rise to Action, Bakers Enrich America, and ABA’s Congressional Directory allowed our Members and Government Relations staff to be even more effective moving top priorities over the finish line.

Member-Driven Advocacy

As a direct result of voluntary contributions to ABA's Political Education Fund, the American Bakers Association is able to provide Members with actionable information, digital tools, and a voter resource hub to empower their direct involvement in the political process.

Rise to Action

Non-partisan election resources, Congressional voting records, bill tracking for ABA Members.

Voter Voice

Customized Congressional action alerts and easy-to-use outreach for ABA Members to push for key legislative initiatives.

Voluntary Contributions

Per federal regulation, ABA’s Political Education Fund may accept corporate funds. The Political Education Fund should not be confused with the American Bakers Political Action Committee (PAC) that can only accept personal checks (and absolutely no corporate contributions).
