Political Action Committee (limited attendance)The WVCBA’s Political Action Committee (PAC) represents our dedication to be politically active.

Candidate forums for local and state elections are hosted by the WVCBA PAC.
The mission of the WVCBA Political Action Committee is to seek out, evaluate qualifications of, and endorse candidates for public office who support the ideals of our free enterprise system.
