We’re not politicians or wealthy corporate executives. We are good neighbors, parents, workers, and friends who care deeply about the future of the communities in Western New York. Our PAC champions progressive American values, and the next generation of national leaders who are committed to protecting our democracy and fighting back against rising authoritarianism in America, starting in WNY. 

We are not beholden to the internal party politics that has disillusioned people from caring about important issues. We are an independent voice that supports leadership and policies that truly care about the lives of Americans - not feeding the corporate machine, lining their own pockets, or earning favor from powerful players.

The lake effect is powerful.  We are trying to effect change in WNY with the hope that our actions will compound. One effort, action, or dollar on another until momentum becomes movement.

We are by the people and for the people.

FIGHTING EXTREMISM AND PROTECTING DEMOCRACY IN WESTERN NEW YORK

Our Purpose and Vision

Lake Effect Change is an independent federal political action committee dedicated to promoting progressive American values. In an age of misinformation and division, we aim to set the record straight, increase civic engagement, and demand accountability from our leaders.

We are focused on building political power in WNY by engaging voters who feel ignored, disillusioned, or disconnected from traditional party structures. We create authentic, modern, fact-based messaging and grassroots engagement that strengthens democracy, supports working families, and holds our elected officials accountable.​

Democracy won't work if our government is run by billionaires. We are giving a voice back to working families and regular Americans
