HOPAC is funded by Hospitality Minnesota member donations.

The Minnesota Hospitality PAC is a non-partisan organization dedicated to supporting hospitality business-minded candidates for the state legislature. Our goal is to elect candidates who recognize the value of the restaurant, hotel, resort, and campground industries and the tremendous economic contributions we make to every community across the state. 

HOPAC contributions may go to state office campaigns, the House and Senate caucuses of both GOP and DFL parties, as well as gubernatorial candidates.

PACs are registered with the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board, a six-member panel appointed by the Governor, which develops, administers, and enforces public disclosure of all political contributions. Campaign finance laws dictate that all financial contributions to a PAC be from a personal financial account and be reported to the Campaign Finance Board. In Minnesota, it is against the law for corporations to donate money to candidates or to political parties, either directly or indirectly through another group.
