For Immediate Release
ABC PAC today announced the launch of Rightsroots by ABC PAC, a new on-line donation website for contributions to Republican candidates for federal office. The site can be found at http://www.rightroots.com
Rightroots by ABC PAC is a one-stop resource to contribute to Republican candidates for federal office. Rightroots is the answer for those in the conservative community online who have been clamoring for a Republican counter to the Democrats who have, so far, out raised Republicans on the Internet.
Rightroots is going to be adding additional functionality including the ability for users to create slates of candidates and “widgets” for placement on blogs.
ABC PAC is an independent, federally registered political action committee (PAC) whose primary mission is to act as a "conduit" to raise money over the internet to help Republican candidates for federal office.
Independent political committees have the ability to act as conduits for candidate fundraising. They raise funds specifically for individual candidates, and pass those contributions through to the individual candidate. Under the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA), these contributions are reported by both the political committee and the recipient candidate's committee.
