For this reason, contributions to AACEPAC must be from a personal account. • Upon request, copies of AACEPAC Bylaws will be furnished and an annual statement of your contribution will be sent to you when you contribute to AACEPAC.

AACEPAC Mission F ormed i n 2 0 0 1 , the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists Political Action Committee (AACEPAC) promotes the interests of endocrinologists and their patients through all forms of political action. AACEPAC contributes to congressional candidate campaigns which share AACEPAC’s views on health issues, and supports passage or defeat of legislative and regulatory issues that impact endocrinology. AACEPAC provides an important vehicle for supporting the principles of better health and those candidates for elective office who share this goal. Each election cycle brings new challenges to the clinical endocrinologist and the practice of medicine, and AACEPAC support can mean the difference between victory and defeat. How Can I Make a Difference? By voluntarily contributing to AACEPAC, you are joining your colleagues who share your concerns about America’s future health care delivery system. Combining the contributions of many practicing endocrinologists greatly enhances our ability to provide meaningful support to candidates for the United States Congress who will support our common goals. Your contribution allows AACEPAC to support candidates who will be receptive to our concerns and represent the interests of our patients in legislative and regulatory decisions related to organized medicine, managed care, federal agencies, and other health care related matters. Please unite with your colleagues to help ensure your future ability to provide the best care possible for your patients and preserve the future of your practice as part of a free enterprise system of health care.
