2016 Endorsements
July 19, 2016

The Associated Industries of Florida Political Action Committee (AIFPAC) today announced its endorsements for candidates running for the Florida Senate and House of Representatives during the 2016 Election Cycle.

The AIF Political Action Committee (AIFPAC) was formed to assist in the election of business friendly candidates to the Florida Legislature.
