Landing Page About
The Government Relations section provides educational resources about current legislative, regulatory and legal issues faced by electric cooperatives.
Grassroots advocacy is the hallmark of electric co-ops. We draw our political strength from our directors, managers, employees and member-owners. You will find resources on our legislative issues we face and how to
get involved in the political process.
With narrow margins in the House and Senate, an increasing amount of policymaking is occurring within the executive branch. The regulatory issues team is actively involved in shaping agency guidance, regulation and federal funding opportunities that impact cooperatives.
Finally, you will find information here about America’s Electric Cooperatives PAC, including a state-by-state breakdown of contributions and a place where eligible employees can join or contribute using PayPal.
