BIPAC’s political analysis drives our political involvement programs – the Prosperity Fund, the Prosperity Project^®, PAC Resources and our PAC, the Action Fund. It determines in which states we focus our efforts and which candidates receive BIPAC support. Our senior political analyst, Bernadette Budde, has been called the dean of congressional campaign watchers. Her analysis is made available to members through BIPAC’s publications, events, speaker series and databases.
