MSN Student Powell Appointed to ANA-PAC Board of Trustees

Steven Powell, MSN student, was recently appointed to the board of trustees for the American Nurses Association Political Action Committee (ANA-PAC).

ANA-PAC exists to support federal candidates with voluntary contributions from its members since federal election law prohibits membership associations and corporations from doing so. Formed in the 1970s, the ANA-PAC board of trustees is organized as an unincorporated committee of the ANA board of directors and is comprised of active ANA members. ANA staff and the ANA-PAC board of trustees in consultation with the Constituent/State Nurses Associations work to identify candidates to support for federal office, regardless of party affiliation. The voluntary contributions received by ANA-PAC from its members are only used for political purposes and represent the thousands of registered nurses who support the PAC.
