Candidate Endorsement Policy

About ImpeachPAC

ImpeachPAC will consider for endorsement those candidates who meet the following criteria:

  1. Democratic candidates for U.S. Senate or House of Representatives, both incumbents and challengers
  2. Incumbents must introduce or co-sponsor Articles of Impeachment for George Bush and Dick Cheney in 2006
  3. Challengers must publicly demand immediate impeachment hearings for George Bush and Dick Cheney
  4. Endorsees must be "aggressive progressives" - fearless, outspoken champions of progressive values
  5. Endorsees must have strong grassroots support in the district, as evidenced by an e-mail newsletter list of 0.5% of the Democratic voters in the last general election for this seat
  6. Endorsees must have the endorsement of a progressive PAC:

    If no progressive PAC has endorsed in a race, we will also consider endorsement by members of the House Progressive Caucus.

  7. Endorsees must run a grassroots, internet-based campaign with a cutting-edge web site. We recommend these turn-key Web sites
  8. We will not endorse candidates in primaries against Democratic incumbents, except where those incumbents obstruct efforts to investigate Bush-Cheney's pre-war lies
