The coming months are a pivotal time for the EB-5 community in Washington, D.C., and the need for a strong IIUSA Political Action Committee (PAC) is more urgent than ever before.
Our PAC is an essential tool, allowing us to support political candidates who champion the EB-5 program and understand its immense value.
IIUSA established our PAC in 2023 to strengthen our influence in the nation’s capital. While individual contributions are always welcome, a PAC’s support sends a powerful message about our organization’s united priorities and unwavering commitment.
The IIUSA PAC has grown tremendously since its creation, and it’s more critical than ever to build on that momentum. Our industry’s future success depends on our ability to engage effectively with policymakers.
Since it’s creation in 2023, the IIUSA PAC:
- Raised nearly $209,000 through 121 individual contributions.
- Received contributions from 27 IIUSA member organizations.
- Distributed 22 contributions to 13 federal candidates from both political parties.
The challenges and opportunities ahead — from the Gold Card and other legislative debates to regulatory changes – require us to double down on our advocacy efforts. Your contribution to the IIUSA PAC is an investment in the long-term health and stability of the entire EB-5 industry.
Here’s how you can help us seize this moment:
If your organization hasn’t already done so, please complete the IIUSA PAC Prior Approval Form and return it to pac@iiusa.org. Submitting this form doesn’t obligate you to contribute financially. It simply allows the PAC to communicate directly with you about contributions and gives you access to IIUSA PAC-sponsored events.
