About NBA BankPAC

NBA BankPAC is the bipartisan political action committee of the NBA. Its purpose is to solicit contributions from individual bankers in Nebraska for both state and national elections. NBA BankPAC is composed of two separate, segregated funds: the State BankPAC and the Federal BankPAC.

• NBA BankPAC uses the funds raised to support candidates who help promote a strong and competitive banking system.
• NBA State BankPAC can receive individual, associate member, state bank, and holding company State BankPAC contributions. National banks cannot donate to the State BankPAC.
• NBA BankPAC is operated by a committee representing each of the Nebraska Bankers Association’s groups. Members of the NBA BankPAC Committee determine which candidates to support by considering the recommendations of individual NBA members and carefully reviewing the following set of criteria.
  • The candidate’s positions on banking and business issues.
  • The candidate’s voting record, leadership ability, and committee assignments.
  • The probability of the candidate’s success.
  • Contributions to NBA BankPAC are not deductible for state or federal income tax purposes.

National banks cannot donate gifts to the Silent Auction, but individuals, associate members, state-chartered banks, and state-chartered holding companies of national banks can. Contributions or gifts to the NBA State BankPAC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal or state income tax purposes. Proceeds that benefit Nebraska State BankPAC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal or state income tax purposes.

 *All contributions are voluntary.  No form of coercion may be used to solicit contributions.  A suggested contribution is just that, a suggestion.  No employee shall be favored, disadvantaged, or retaliated against based on their contribution or their decision not to contribute. Funds donated to NBA State BankPAC support candidates for a State office who support the banking industry.
