Political Action Committee
Support the candidates who understand the architecture profession.
Through the AIA Virginia Political Action Committee (PAC), we support candidates who understand the architecture profession. When these candidates win, they bring that understanding to the General Assembly and to issues that are important us and the built environment.
Our policymakers and politicians are the stewards of our built infrastructure. The work that they do impacts the work that we do in so many ways. Every day, they’re called upon to make important decisions that impact the design of our communities — procurement, funding, zoning, transportation, preservation, taxation.
They need our advice. Architects and designers are perfectly positioned to be the authoritative resource for design, building, resiliency, sustainability, and related policy issues. If legislators aren’t getting advice from us, they’ll be getting it from someone else. Read our Position Statements
A strong PAC is critical to our advocacy efforts and is completely funded by donations from members just like you. Remember: membership dues will never be used to support a political candidate. Read FAQs about our PAC giving.
