NCRA’s Political Action Committee (PAC) works diligently on Capitol Hill and beyond to protect the interests of the court reporting, captioning, and legal video professions. If you are planning to attend the 2022 NCRA Conference & Expo being held July 21-24 at the Hyatt Regency Orlando in Orlando, Fla., you can help support PAC by taking a chance in the Gift Basket Extravaganza raffle.
Conference attendees who contribute to NCRA PAC will receive physical raffle tickets based on the amount of their contribution. After contributing and receiving their raffle tickets, NCRA PAC contributors will place their raffle tickets in the basket that they wish to win. You must be an NCRA member to contribute to NCRA PAC, and you must be physically present to win. The following ticket prices are available:
- 10 Tickets for a $20 Contribution
- 25 Tickets for a $50 Contribution

Only debit and credit cards or checks will be accepted, no cash.
Come by the PAC booth in the Expo Hall to see the gift baskets on display. Past gift baskets have included fresh blue crabs from the Maryland Court Reporters Association and wine and sports memorabilia from the California Court Reporters Association.
Only NCRA members physically present at the Conference can contribute to the NCRA PAC raffle. The raffle will take place at 4:15 p.m. on Saturday, July 23, during the last coffee break in the Expo Hall. Contributors must be present to win and will have the opportunity to win multiple prizes.

The primary focus of NCRA PAC is to develop and nurture legislative relationships that will work in the interest of the Association’s legislative agenda by electing and re-electing “friends” of NCRA to Congress; articulating NCRA’s legislative issues to policymakers on Capitol Hill; and cultivating relationships on Capitol Hill that will work to the benefit of court reporters, captioners, legal videographers, scopists, and associated legal professionals. To meet these objectives, NCRA PAC contributes to the campaigns of congressional candidates who have shown their support for the court reporting, captioning, and legal video professions and the legislative issues of NCRA. It is through these contributions that NCRA PAC gains access to voice its interests and concerns to those individuals who are in a position to make a difference for the benefit of the professions.
