The CAPE Political Endorsement Committee (PEC) is comprised of member-volunteers who dedicate their time, experience and energy to help ensure that CAPE members are properly engaged in state and local campaigns. The CAPE PEC assesses each request for endorsement for its potential to advance the collective agenda of L.A. County professional employees to (1) provide quality public services for residents and businesses, and (2) protect the career interests of CAPE-represented employees.
The PEC meets as needed each election cycle to take input from individual candidates for public office and/or ballot measure campaigns with potential to impact the vital public services CAPE members provide. The committee reviews all input received and then makes recommendations to the Board of Directors for action on endorsements and ballot measure positions. The CAPE Board of Directors is the final decision making authority on all CAPE endorsements and ballot measure positions.
To volunteer for the CAPE PEC, please contact Jarard Kings, Field Services & Communications Director, at (626) 243-0340.
