From Presence to Power — 2026 Starts With Us

Together, Nigerian Americans can protect our interests, strengthen our communities, and make history in 2026.

Political Engagement and Support

NAPAC USA is committed to advancing civic participation and public policy outcomes that strengthen Nigerian American communities across the United States.

While the national organization, a nonprofit 501(c)(4), engages in policy advocacy, civic education, and community empowerment, candidate endorsements are issued exclusively by duly constituted NAPAC USA State Political Action Committees in accordance with applicable campaign finance laws.

The Candidates Supported by Our State PACs

NAPAC USA State PACs support candidates who demonstrate a clear and measurable commitment to the priorities of the Nigerian American community, not only in rhetoric, but in policy and action.

State PAC endorsements reflect alignment with leaders who champion:

  • Access to capital for small and minority-owned businesses

  • Fair and modern immigration pathways that attract and retain global talent

  • STEM and educational opportunities that prepare the next generation to lead

  • Health equity that delivers better outcomes for underserved communities

  • Safe and thriving neighborhoods where families and businesses can prosper

State PAC endorsements are grounded in structured engagement, community dialogue, and issue alignment. As our political infrastructure continues to evolve, candidates seeking State PAC support participate in a defined screening and recommendation process designed to ensure consistency, transparency, and accountability.
