BIPAC
BIPAC (Business-Industry Political Action Committee) is a purportedly nonpartisan, membership-supported, mission-driven, organization dedicated to increasing the political effectiveness of America’s business community.〔("BIPAC.org - Who Are We" )〕 It is led by former U.S. Congressman Jim Gerlach, who served Pennsylvania's sixth congressional district from 2002-2014.〔("The Hill: Ex-Rep. Gerlach ditches K St. in return to campaign world" )〕
==History==
BIPAC was founded in 1963 as “an independent, nonpartisan group to serve as a political action arm for American business and industry.” It is known as the very first business political action committee (PAC).〔("BIPAC.org - History" )〕 They conduct extensive biennial studies of employer-to-employee communications programs through both national polling and surveys within companies deploying a grassroots communications strategy.〔("Harvard Business Review - Study: Employees Want Employers to Talk Politics" November 2, 2012 )〕
Members of the business community, in August 1963, provided seed funding to establish BIPAC with the goal of electing business-friendly candidates.〔(''Political brokers: money, organizations, power, and people'' by Judith G Smith, publisher Liveright, New York, 1972. ) Chapter 5 "Business-Industry Political Action Committee" by Jonathan Cottin, discusses the origins of the group and its activities through 1970.〕 The group is not officially affiliated with either political party.〔〔("GOP Angers Big Business on Key Issues" (June 21, 1998) Washington Post )〕〔("Business, GOP Chiefs Reconcile on Agenda" (July 8, 1998) Washington Post )〕〔( Business Communications in a Post-Partisan Era )〕〔(List of BIPAC's Candidate endorsements for 2010 )〕
