GREATER OKLAHOMA CITY CHAMBER PAC
An effective, unified voice in electing pro-business candidates A primary mission of the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber is to continuously and successfully improve Oklahoma’s business climate to make it more attractive for economic development. The Greater OKC Chamber Political Action Committee was formed to aggressively pursue the election and re-election of pro-business candidates at the state and local levels who take a stand for Oklahoma City’s key economic development priorities. In the decade since
it was founded in 2010, the Greater OKC Chamber PAC has strengthened the Chamber’s ability to advocate on behalf of the Oklahoma City business community by contributing in excess of $500,000 to help elect pro- business candidates. The Greater OKC Chamber PAC raised a total of $109,771 during the most recent 2019-2020 election cycle. This gave the Chamber PAC the ability to contribute a total of $91,500 to pro- business candidates in every corner of the state competing in the 2019 and 2020 elections. During that cycle, the Chamber PAC made 60 contributions to candidates in state legislative and local races. Of these 60 contributions, all but one of which were made during a volatile 2020 election year impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, 54 were made to successful
candidates. This gave the Chamber PAC an overall winning percentage of 90%. This overall success rate clearly demonstrates the strong influence the Chamber PAC has in electing and re-electing pro-business candidates across the state who are likely to support the Chamber’s public policy agenda. The Greater OKC Chamber’s PAC’s effective and unified voice has a proven track record of success of impacting Oklahoma’s political climate and allows every business the opportunity to voice its support for electing pro-business candidates. You can be a critical part of this effort, in 2021 and beyond, by making a contribution to the Chamber PAC to ensure we continue to have the resources necessary to elect candidates who will maintain a strong focus on economic development.
