FLADPAC
Florida Dental Political Action Committee

INVEST IN YOUR FUTURE
Any business requires an investment. That's what PAC dollars are - an investment in the legislative process and the future of your business.
Your PAC dollars and a strong political-action committee will:
• support pro-dental candidates for election to the Florida Legislature and statewide offices.
• provide education and information to candidates for political office, including elected decision-makers.
• mobilize Florida dentists for grassroots political involvement.
Our political-action committee enables organized dentistry to have a personal
involvement in campaigns. Only 1 in 5 licensed Florida dentists are FLADPAC
members.
FLADPAC is administered by a Board of Directors and is also affiliated with
the ADPAC (American Dental Political Action Committee). FLADPAC members receive
the biannual PacPower newsletter and a brochure announcing the FLADPAC-supported
candidates before the first primary of the general election.
If you have any questions or would like to join FLADPAC, please contact the

FLADPAC Supports Candidates for Upcoming Primary
The Florida Dental Political Action Committee (FLADPAC) has supported several
pro-dental candidates for the Aug. 31 primary election. The FDA trusts that
these candidates, if elected, would strongly support dental issues.
There are several contested seats in this year’s primary elections.
See below to view a guide, by component, of candidates the FDA believes will
serve organized dentistry.
As a busy professional, perhaps voting on election day won’t be convenient
for you. Submitting an absentee ballot is an excellent alternative and early
voting is available in many Florida counties. Your supervisor of elections
can inform you of specific dates and deadlines in your area.
For absentee and early voting information in your county, visit the Florida
Department of Elections’ Web site.
And don’t forget to vote!
