KARBC and KAR-PAC remain separate. KARBC policy education, member programming, and organizational advocacy must be maintained separately from KAR-PAC political contribution activity. Policy publications should not imply that membership dues are used for political contributions.
 

Policy content and political activity remain distinct. KARBC provides business, policy, and civic information as a membership organization. KAR-PAC is a separate political action committee, and political contribution activity is maintained separately.
