Help us keep your bills affordable! Join Co-op Owners for Political Action. Funds raised by this grassroots network are donated to the political campaigns of candidates whose positions on issues support those of electric cooperatives. Clay Electric’s ability to provide its members with excellent service and affordably priced power can be negatively affected by rules and regulations passed by our elected officials, so it’s vitally important that we elect the right people into political office. The personal dedication of Clay’s members to stand together as part of a powerful grassroots network that promotes policies that help secure the future of electric co-ops and the many families they serve is very important. This is an opportunity to make a huge difference.
The most important benefit you receive as a member of COPA is a voice in helping elect state and federal officials who will support your cooperative and your community. To join COPA, return this mailer to us; for more information, contact your district office. This offer is available to our residential members only, due to federal election rules.
