History

The Illinois Quad City Chamber Political Advocates for a Better Community (PAC) was formed in September of 1999. At least initially, it was decided that PAC would be involved in state and local races only, and not federal contests, as federal law present different regulation and operation requirements. PAC is funded through donations by Illinois Quad City Chamber of Commerce members and private citizens.

The Illinois State Chamber created Chamber PAC in 1975, Chamber PAC is one of the oldest business political action committees in Illinois. Our mission is to promote and strive for improvement of Illinois government; encourage individuals to know their government; and assist individuals in organizing themselves for more effective political action.
