Political Action Committee

Want to have a direct impact in Washington? Join the Lumber Dealers Political Action Committee (LuDPAC). The mission of this committee is to engage lumber and building material dealers in the political process and promote the building material industry’s legislative agenda by electing industry-friendly, pro-business candidates to federal office. LuDPAC allows like-minded members to come together to elect candidates who will be their voice on Capitol Hill.
