The no corporate PAC pledge is a pledge taken by some politicians in the United States to not accept political donations from corporate political action committees. The rejection of corporate PAC money can increase grassroots support for a candidate. According to political activist Saikat Chakrabarti, "not taking corporate money is a core part of the progressive message".[1]
The trend of pledging not to take corporate PAC money has been increasing. In 2018, three quarters of Democratic party challengers in "top races" rejected corporate PAC money.[1][2]
