What is CONPAC?

CONPAC is a voluntary, non-profit, unincorporated association of people and organizations interested in boosting the business environment and strengthening the construction industry.


What does CONPAC do?

Your CONPAC contribution funds:

  • Face-to-Face meetings with legislators and candidates.
  • Mail pieces and other information used to inform legislators about our issues.
  • Contributions to candidates friendly to infrastructure and business.
  • Supports ballot initiatives and other causes that generate a good business climate in South Dakota.


How does CONPAC choose candidates?

The CONPAC Board of Directors, Membership, and staff consider the following when determining campaign contributions:

  • Input from CONPAC contributors.
  • Candidate voting records.
  • AGC & LICA member input.
  • In-person candidate interviews

(A candidate’s political party is not a criterion for support.)


Why should I contribute?

A well-funded CONPAC allows us to support candidates who support infrastructure investment and a good business climate.  CONPAC, in concert with AGC Government Affairs efforts, allows us to be the voice of the construction industry.  The more members who participate, the stronger our voice.
