Washington, DC (January 14, 2014) – GOPAC, a D.C.-based organization that prides itself on training up the conservative “farm team” around the country, today announced that Alabama State Rep. Jack Williams, R-Vestavia Hills, has joined its Legislative Leaders Advisory Board.
“Each member of our 2014 Legislative Leaders Advisory Board has a distinguished record of success at promoting conservative ideas and assisting Republican candidates with getting elected,” said GOPAC Chairman Frank Donatelli. “Their involvement will strengthen our efforts as the Republican Party’s premier center for educating and electing a new generation of Republican leaders.”
The members of the Legislative Leaders Advisory Board will keep GOPAC updated on key legislative and political developments within their state. Advisory Board Members serve a one-year term.
Williams stands out on GOPAC’s list as one of the few members of the board who does not serve in an official leadership capacity like Speaker of the House, President Pro Tem of the Senate or Majority or Minority Leader. Williams is the Chairman of the Alabama House Commerce Committee.
Founded in 1978, GOPAC says they “champion the ideas that unite voters around a vision of creating jobs, getting government spending under control, making government more effective, and keeping America safe. This is why Republicans turn to GOPAC for coaching and best practices on effective ways to communicate conservative ideas and solutions.”
GOPAC’s efforts have played a significant role in the Republican Party’s success at the state level in recent years.
“We have a deep bench of talented conservative leaders who are state-tested and ready to lead in Washington,” GOPAC added in a statement. “In 2014, GOPAC will independently promote proven leaders who have participated in GOPAC’s programs in the past as they seek federal office.”
