About Us

Public Affairs Support Services, Inc. (PASS) was established in 1984 to help public affairs executives manage the countless tasks associated with campaign finance activities. Now, almost three decades later, PASS is still the PAC management and PAC compliance service for organizations that are serious about campaign finance compliance.

Knowledgeable Staff

The PASS team is comprised of former Federal Election Committee analysts, corporate PAC managers, and Capitol Hill staff who assist clients with PAC administration, PAC reporting, and PAC management. Because all PACs operate differently, PASS tailors its services to meet each client’s unique needs.

Reliability; ongoing relationship; PASS is keeping up on day-to-day responsibilities and it’s working well.

Financial Services Client

We have a small office. If we did it ourselves, we’d be inclined to make mistakes. They meet all of our needs. I’m not going to have to do anything anymore, not even sign reports because we went with electronic filing.

Executive Assistant

Strong customer service throughout the PASS staff; dependable; fills in very nicely for each other; strong collegiality.

Energy Client

BSA did not have the internal ‘bandwidth’ (staff expertise) required so we looked externally for a PAC management firm. We interviewed a couple vendors, but liked the personal touch that PASS offered. No question is too mundane for the staff and I’m able to obtain quick responses. PASS is a good value for the cost and perfect for BSA’s needs. They provide a flexible approach and tailor their services to the needs of their customers.

Software Association Client

I give PASS an A-plus. Our treasurer was overwhelmed with all the paperwork. They were very good at helping us streamline our processes and lowering the amount of reporting. They respond very quickly. They know this is important to the client.
