CIRC Action Fund (c4/PAC)
Organization Description
CIRC Action Fund (501(c)4) was established in 2012 to build a strong and thriving Colorado where all residents are treated with dignity and respect, have equal access to a fair quality of life, and the opportunity to live united with family. Our mission compels us to elect and protect candidates with a history of championing immigrant rights issues and to mobilize an electorate of People of Color and New Americans that reflects the populations where we work.
2026 Programs
In 2026, CIRC Action Fund is planning to lead a nonpartisan and partisan voter engagement program in Congressional District 8, one of the most competitive districts in the state. At the state level, we are looking at the Governor and Attorney General races (to be confirmed). Additionally, our focus will continue to be on maintaining and expanding pro-immigrant majorities in the State Senate and House. We will target low-propensity BIPOC voters through door knocking, texts, mailers, and ads.
2025 Programs
In 2025, our goal was to mobilize voters in Colorado’s Congressional District 8 (CD-08) to support pro-immigrant candidates and policies through targeted, community-driven campaigns. We focused on municipal elections in Adams County, specifically in Westminster, Aurora, Greeley, and Commerce City – all overlap with CD8 – to lay the groundwork for stronger turnout in 2026. By connecting local issues to immigrant rights and building relationships through trusted community networks, we prepared the foundation for large-scale mobilization this year. We knocked on close to 5,000 doors and seven of our local endorsed candidates won their races.
2024 Programs
In 2024, CIRC Action Fund is planning to lead a nonpartisan and partisan electoral program in Congressional District 8 and Congressional District 3, primarily in Adams, Arapahoe, Denver, El Paso, Jefferson, and Pueblo counties. We will target low-propensity BIPOC voters through door knocking, texts, and mailers.
