What it is
Welcomepac is registered with the FEC as a hybrid PAC. In 2026 it has reported $1.4M in independent expenditures across 15 races, 100% of it helping Democrats.
A hybrid PAC keeps two bank accounts: one that gives directly to candidates under contribution limits, and one that spends independently with unlimited money, like a super PAC.
