Support the Lodge 7 PAC Fund
Dear Members:
The PAC Fund has once again depleted its funds and we are offering a $4 credit per member from your membership dues and authorizing a payment of that same $4 into the PAC Fund to allow us to continue to support our efforts and to back politicians who are “friendly” to, and supportive of law enforcement. There- fore, this portion of your dues will be treated by each member as a non-deductible contribution for your 2016 tax return.
If any of you are opposed to this $4 credit/transfer, please contact our office by Oct. 31, 2016 and we will reduce those amounts from the transfer into the PAC Fund.
This is NOT a Union Dues increase.
This is an allocation of your dues to PAC.
As always, voluntary contributions to the PAC Fund are always welcome. Thank you for your support of our PAC Fund.
John T. Capparelli Treasurer
