AEF-INVESTED PROJECT
Across America in recent years, radical progressives have been elected to office as local prosecutors and district attorneys. Rather than enforce the rule of law, they are taking extreme positions that let violent criminals go free and undermine public safety in our communities. The Protecting Americans Project was organized to promote conservative public policy solutions to keep criminals off our streets and create safe environments for business and job creators.

The GOPAC Education Fund is dedicated to furthering the common good and general welfare of the citizens of the United States of America by promoting conservative policies for federal, state, and local governments that lower taxes, limit the size of government, and set the right business environment for job creation, so individuals can pursue their dreams and live in freedom.
Where does AEF invest?
Public Opinion Survey Research
Public opinion survey research is at the center of learning the views, priorities, ambitions and concerns of a community, district, state and nation. Funding is provided for national, state, and local public opinion research. Project examples include: opinion, messaging, benchmark, brushfire, entrance, exit, tracking, and straw polls.
Advocacy
The second pillar is conservative citizens being fully engaged in the civic arena. Funding is provided for national, state, and local public opinion activism. Project examples include: leadership development; non-partisan voter registration drives; informing conservatives on voting processes; and reminding conservatives to vote on the issues that impact all Americans’ lives both now and for generations to come.
Seminars & Symposiums
Elected officials, newsmakers, policy experts, and influencers sharing ideas and listening to others are paramount to advancing conservatism and pointing out the harmful effects of progressivism. Capitalizing on solutions and addressing solutions require thoughtful discussion. Funding is provided for national, state, and local seminars and symposiums. Project examples include: live and streaming public events; live and recorded candidate forums; and streaming and video archived panel discussions. The American Excellence Foundation will partner with organizations to create educational events and assist in putting on seminars.
