TTA-PAC

TTA’s Political Action Committee (TTA-PAC) raises funds from individual donors to support candidates and officeholders that support rural telecommunications. 

It is a non-profit entity governed by the Texas Ethics Commission, and contributions are made during the primary and general election cycles on a bipartisan basis. 

TTA-PAC is another way we can show support for our elected officials, and show others in the industry that we are an active participant in the political process in Austin and across the state.


TTA-PAC cannot accept corporate contributions, it can accept only contributions from individuals.
