August 2021 Conduit/WisPAC Update

Posted By: Andrew Heidtke Advocacy,

We're ramping up our political efforts this summer - our WisPAC golf outing was a huge success and members are actively meeting with legislators to talk about our issues. But we need your help to continue this momentum. A big reason that we have a seat at the table is because of our political giving. Help us make a difference and support pro-engineering candidates through the Conduit/WisPAC. There are already a lot of people who have stepped up in 2021 - check them out below and join the list:
