Contribute to MNEA-PAC
THE STAKES ARE HIGH.
Getting involved in political action is the key to supporting the promise of public education and the rights of education employees. Your contribution to MNEA-PAC helps drive positive change in Missouri schools.
The MNEA PAC Fund empowers educators to shape elections and improve the daily lives of educators and students.
Half of every dollar contributed supports local school board, bond, and levy elections. The other half helps elect MNEA members running for the state legislature, as well as candidates who share our vision for strong public schools.
Through MNEA PAC,
- YOU and the power of our union helped elect NINE fellow Missouri NEA members to the legislature.
- YOU added $500 million to the funding formula in 2025 and passed breastfeeding protections for educators into law.
- YOU protected our collective bargaining rights, teacher tenure, and public education.
- And YOU won 86% of your local school board elections through investments in MNEA PAC.
Elected officials make decisions that translate into policy and legislation that affect schools and classrooms, including smaller class sizes, full-time kindergarten, pre-school screenings, school-safety measures, professional development, and ample funding for programs.
Only after the MNEA Executive PAC Council has completed a lengthy recommendation process, which includes interviewing candidates, scrutinizing the records of those in public office, and studying candidates' responses to questions about education-related issues, are direct PAC contributions made to support legislative candidates who measure up. MNEA's priorities are outlined in MNEA Resolutions.
Help us build MNEA-PAC by setting up a recurring monthly contribution.
All contributions are voluntary, stay in Missouri, and are entirely separate from dues.
You may also choose to send a check to Missouri NEA, Attn: Accounting, 1810 E Elm Street, Jefferson City, MO 65101; make the check payable to "MNEA-PAC." On the check, include your full name, address, employer, and occupation.
If you have any questions, contact MNEA Political Director Elizabeth "Liz" Zerr (elizabeth.zerr@mnea.org).
Contributions or gifts to the MNEA-PAC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. State law requires MNEA to report to the Missouri Ethics Commission the name and mailing address of any individual whose contributions aggregate in excess of $100 in a calendar year.
