PROMO PAC on Pause
Over the past couple years PROMO launched into a transition to develop a new strategic framework able to guide our work through the shifting polarizing political environment attacking LGBTQ+ rights. We believe Missouri can be a state in which LGBTQ+ people – every race, ethnicity, demographic, zip code, and experience – are valued and thriving. Yet to achieve this, we have to intentionally evaluate our methods of building power and creatively reimagine how we do what we do. 

Over the remainder of 2025 we have paused our PAC activity and endorsement process in order to evaluate and reimagine the power behind our PAC. We currently do not have the intention to connect directly with candidates for office, nor endorse before we pick our activity back up. We sincerely appreciate your desire to be a PROMO PAC endorsed candidate to ensure that LGBTQ+ Missourians see themselves and their values represented and fought for by public officials. We hope you continue to campaign on the right side of LGBTQ+ equality, and we look forward to connecting in 2026. 
In solidarity, PROMO PAC

PROMO PAC’s endorsement process begins with a candidate survey focused on collecting opinions about the issues most aligned with our mission. If you have filled out our survey in the past, we do not need a new one completed. 

After our team grades the survey, we reach out for an interview (conducted virtually or in-person). Our team will take all surveys and interviews back to the PROMO PAC Board as a whole for discussion and approval. The PROMO PAC Board makes recommendations for endorsements to the PROMO Board, which determines official approval. 

Considerations for Endorsement

• Candidate must meet the criteria of PROMO PAC’s mission, understood in combination of both the survey and interview. 
• Candidate must be viable and able to run a competitive campaign.
• Candidate’s prior work or track-record in supporting full LGBTQ+ equality.
• PROMO PAC does take into consideration whether candidates are openly LGBTQ+ but does not endorse candidates simply because they are LGBTQ+.
• NOTE: A candidate who is not 100% in support of full LGBTQ+ equality is not eligible for endorsement.
