ABOUT THE 504PAC
WHAT IS THE 504PAC?
504PAC is a nonpartisan Political Action Committee. It is a community, and funds, that support bipartisan work targeted to benefit the CDC industry. It is an important tool in our strategy to advocate for the longevity, relevance, and modernization of our industry.504PAC FUNDS ALLOW NADCO TO:
- Educate government representatives
- Support industry champions
- Develop new industry champions
- Keep the CDC industry and the 504 program preeminent
- Underscore our bipartisan value
DOES THE 504PAC MAKE A DIFFERENCE? YES!
In 2020, the CDC industry saw a number of our 504 priorities come to fruition, including changes to the debt refinance without expansion program, extension of emergency payments and institution of 504 fee waivers, and the creation of an Express program to process smaller 504 loans. The inclusion of these provisions is directly correlated to the strong relationships NADCO has built with the leaders of the Small Business Committees through engagement with members and staff, meetings with CDC representatives, and donations to respective campaigns. Each of these tools is an integral part of our government relations strategy aimed at ensuring robust economic development through a thriving CDC industry.504PAC EVENTS
