WE TAKE THIS ROLE VERY SERIOUSLY, AS IT DRIVES OUR ADVOCACY EFFORTS AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT. WHETHER WE'RE TAKING ACTION AT THE CITY, COUNTY, STATE OR FEDERAL LEVEL, THE CHAMBER'S CORE MISSION IS TO WORK TO ENSURE A HEALTHY BUSINESS CLIMATE IN WHICH ALL OF OUR MEMBERS CAN FLOURISH. HOWEVER, WE FACE MANY CHALLENGES IN WORKING TOWARD THIS GOAL, INCLUDING A STATE LEGISLATURE THAT CONTINUALLY PRODUCES "JOB-KILLER" BILLS THAT HAVE THE EFFECT OF CLOUDING CALIFORNIA'S BUSINESS CLIMATE. THE BAKERSFIELD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (BAKPAC) WAS FORMED 15 YEARS AGO IN AN EFFORT TO MORE DIRECTLY INFLUENCE THE PUBLIC POLICY ISSUES AND RACES THAT HAVE AN EFFECT ON YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS. BAKPAC PROVIDES OUR CHAMBER WITH ANOTHER TOOL IN THE ADVOCACY ARENA THAT ALLOWS US TO PROVIDE DIRECT SUPPORT TO STATE AND LOCAL CANDIDATES AND BALLOT MEASURES IMPACTING BUSINESS AND JOBS. IN TURN, THIS PROVIDES GREAT BENEFITS TO THE PUBLIC BY IMPROVING THE BUSINESS ATMOSPHERE IN BAKERSFIELD, KERN COUNTY AND CALIFORNIA AS A WHOLE. EACH ELECTION CYCLE, BAKPAC INVITES CANDIDATES TO APPLY FOR A POTENTIAL ENDORSEMENT AND THEN INTERVIEWS CANDIDATES TO DETERMINE THEIR KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING, AND SUPPORT FOR A STRONG ECONOMY AND BUSINESS ISSUES. BAKPAC ENDORSES AND FUNDS CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE, AND ALL PAC FUNDS ARE SEPARATE FROM FUNDS OF THE GREATER BAKERSFIELD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. BAKPAC HAS A SEPARATE GOVERNING BOARD, WHICH DOES INCLUDES SOME REPRESENTATION FROM THE CHAMBER'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS. BAKPAC MAY ALSO SUPPORT SOME ISSUES WITH FUNDING. BAKPAC IS A STATE AND LOCAL PAC, WITH BOTH A LARGE AND SMALL CONTRIBUTOR COMMITTEE. 76000 76000 896659 512460 384199 178468 156510 21958 482157 993064 34675 34675 958389 0 958389 1075519 34675 34675 1040844 0 1040844 PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS: FUNDRAISING EXPENSES 34,675.
