2014 ANNUAL REPORT Care PAC is a political fund of the Nebraska Health Care Association Dear friends and colleagues: We are happy to present the 2014 Care PAC Annual Report! Upon reviewing the next few pages, you will see that 2014 was another record-breaking year in terms of amount raised. Care PAC raised $42,834, which is an increase of 26 percent from the previous year. Together, we are truly making a difference. 2014 was an important year in Nebraska politics. Care PAC helped elect a new wave of state legislators who understand the complexities that long- term care providers face on a daily basis and believe that policy should enhance the overall health care delivery system in our state. Building a strong political action fund is the key to being a player in politics, so we now turn our attention toward building a war chest for the next election cycle. Care PAC hopes to carry the success of the 2014 campaign into this year. You are encouraged to help your colleagues strengthen our collective voice!
