Community Change Voters is a Washington, DC-based organization that seeks to increase voter turnout among lower income voters of color. While the committee is not registered with the state of Wisconsin, it is with the Federal Elections Commission as an independent expenditure committee and was first active in 2016 as Immigrant Voters Win PAC. This is the first time the organization has been active in Wisconsin state politics.
Less than three weeks before the November 8 election, the organization first reported spending over $44,000 for phone calls and online advertising to support Democratic incumbent Gov. Tony Evers.
In the days leading up to the election, the committee reported spending over $17,000 for phone calls and online ads to support Evers.
This organization is an unregistered independent expenditure committee that is required to report any such spending done within 60 days of a primary or an election to the Wisconsin Ethics Commission per Chapter 11, Subchapter X of Wisconsin Statutes.
