Engaging in policy, responsibly.
T1PAC is a voluntary, employee-funded PAC that helps TurbineOne take part in the federal policymaking process — nonpartisan, transparent, and aligned with our mission in national security and defense technology.
Participation is entirely optional. You may refuse to contribute without reprisal.
Our perspective, understood.
TurbineOne operates where technology, defense, and national security meet — areas where decisions in Washington directly affect our customers and mission. This is not about partisanship; it's about being at the table.

Frequently asked.
Is participation mandatory?
No. Participation is entirely optional. You may refuse to contribute without reprisal, and you're free to give more, less, or nothing at all.
Is my contribution tax-deductible?
No. Contributions to T1PAC are not tax-deductible under federal law.
How does T1PAC select candidates to support?
T1PAC is a non-partisan entity that supports candidates on both sides of the aisle who understand TurbineOne’s mission. Support is based on committee role, issue alignment, and strategic relevance, never party affiliation.
Will my contribution be public?
Federal law requires the PAC to report the name, address, occupation, and employer of anyone whose contributions exceed $200 in a calendar year.
What is a Political Action Committee (PAC)?
A PAC is an organization that provides a way for people who share common interests (such as employees of the same company) to pool political donations to support candidates for elected office. PACs are a legal, ethical, and transparent method of campaign finance.
What if I prefer to make my own political contributions?
TurbineOne encourages your involvement in the democratic process. However, elected officials and candidates do not have the time or bandwidth to pay attention to each individual contributor. Being a part of T1PAC gives TurbineOne a stronger platform to reach the candidates we support at a more engaged level. These politicians recognize that contributions to T1PAC represent personal voluntary donations from company employees.
