IAPAC is the connected PAC of the Public Affairs Alliance of Iranian Americans ( PAAIA). IAPAC contributes to candidates for public office, regardless of their party affiliation, who are attuned to the domestic concerns of the Iranian American community. IAPAC focuses exclusively on domestic policy issues such as civil rights and immigration, and encourages Americans of Iranian descent to actively participate in the American electoral process.

The candidates who receive contributions from IAPAC have an exceptional track record on the domestic issues of importance to the Iranian American community, have articulated a readiness to engage and work with Iranian Americans in addressing their concerns, or are in a position to have influence over the domestic legislative issues of concern to the community. Foreign policy issues are not taken into consideration for supporting or opposing a particular candidate, including a particular candidate’s views or activities with respect to the Iranian government. Our analysis is exclusively focused upon the candidate’s track record on domestic issues as they pertain to the Iranian American community.
