To date, the 2024 Wisconsin Hospitals State PAC & Conduit campaign has raised $187,040 from 141 contributors. That is 53% of its goal of raising $350,000 in 2024.
See the complete list of 2024 contributors below.
Participating in the political process is important to protect high-quality, high-value health care. The Wisconsin Hospitals State PAC & Conduit supports candidates who understand the important role Wisconsin hospitals and health systems play in the communities they serve, both as leaders in care delivery and as essential employers.
"As we close out May, campaign season in Wisconsin is just about in full swing," said WHA Vice President of External Affairs Kari Hofer. "Please consider making your personal contribution early to maximize our impact and support Wisconsin candidates on the ballot this November," Hofer added.
Personal contributions can be submitted at any time online at www.whconduit.com or by contacting Hofer at 608-268-1816.
