About
Political Action Committees allow like-minded individuals to pool their resources and direct assistance where it’s needed most. The CATTLE RAISERS PAC raises funds from TSCRA members and uses them to support candidates who support cattle producers, private property rights and natural resource management. Sometimes the biggest legislative advocate on an issue important to our members may be a lawmaker from the other end of the state or country. Donating to the PAC allows members an opportunity to support their candidacy even if they cannot vote for them directly.
The CATTLE RAISERS PAC also provides voting recommendations for state and federal candidates in advance of elections. TSCRA’s government relations staff conducts countless meetings with candidates seeking office and compile information from each of their campaigns for the CATTLE RAISERS PAC Board of Trustees to consider. These activities provide an opportunity to establish strong working relationships early in a candidate’s legislative career.
1877 Club
The 1877 Club, launched in 2026, is a prestigious recognition circle for Texas & Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association members that contribute $1,877 or more to Cattle Raisers PAC during an annual giving cycle. This support honors TSCRA’s founding year, 1877, and strengthens the voice for ranchers and landowners.
