Is it possible to form a UFO PAC or Lobby? It is obvious money buys political representation and disclosure is a political issue.


Kudos to everyone here who has been involved in political action via letters and calls to representatives. The recent political pushback to the Schumer amendment plainly shows how representative’s votes can be bribed bought influenced via campaign donations. Often these politicians can be swayed in favor of non-party defining issues for a couple of thousand dollars in donations. Examples here and here.

This left me wondering if there was any way to organize small donations in the UFO community to buy votes towards disclosure? I am not a DC insider and have no idea about the best instrument to do it? I know sometimes donations can be pooled, there are lobbyists, and there are other items like PACs or Super PACs that might be able to be formed? If anyone else out there has any experience doing this, I feel like it could be another effective way to work the politicians. If a lot of people could donate $5, $10, $25 it could pool into something that might be able to affect political change.
