My dealership gives money to the GNYADA PAC. Why do I need to contribute separately to the New York City PAC?
New York State law allows corporate contributions to PACs but these monies cannot be used in New York City election campaigns. In New York City, only personal funds can be contributed to campaigns for city offices.
