SCI-PAC Endorses 106 Hunting Advocates

According to Safari Club International, SCI-PAC has announced support for 106 candidates seeking election to the U.S. Senate or the U.S. House. The committee, which SCI identifies as the largest political action committee led by sportsmen in the United States, says those individuals have shown commitment to wildlife management it considers responsible, to hunting and fishing based on sustainable use, and to conservation that follows scientific methods.

SCI reports that SCI-PAC and the Hunter Action Fund, a super PAC connected to the club, have together collected more than one million dollars in the current election cycle. Funds given directly by SCI-PAC are already being applied for the 106 endorsed office-seekers. Independent spending by the Hunter Action Fund is being held ready for later stages of the campaigns as autumn nears.

SCI-PAC is a nonpartisan committee registered with the Federal Election Commission and authorized to support multiple candidates. The organization states that it supports this slate so that hunting rights remain protected and so that conservation stays a priority for later generations.
