Welcome message from PAC Board

Thank you for visiting the CORROSION and COATINGS PAC website. We’re excited you want to learn more about our mission, help advance our priorities, and join our team.

As the nation's only political action committee dedicated to corrosion prevention and coatings professionals, we’re working hard on your behalf to build champions in Congress and advance policies that promote asset integrity, sustainability, and corrosion expertise. To make a difference, we need your help.

To truly change the status quo, we must fundamentally reform how policymakers plan and account for corrosion. Our current path is unsustainable, and future generations will be hindered by the decisions we make today. No other professionals in the world have our expertise and experience, and our voice is a critical part of this conversation. Please join our team and help make a difference. Whether you donate $10, $100, or $1,000, every donation helps advance our mission.

Thank you for your time and consideration.  If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our PAC Manager.

Sincerely,
CORROSION and COATINGS PAC
