About
Priorities USA Action is the largest Democratic Party super PAC, founded in 2011 by former Obama campaign officials Bill Burton and Sean Sweeney to support Barack Obama's 2012 re-election campaign. It later served as the primary super PAC for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, Joe Biden's 2020 campaign, and has supported Kamala Harris and other Democratic candidates. The group focuses on independent expenditures, high-dollar donors such as Michael Bloomberg, Donald Sussman, and James Simons, voter research targeting Black, Latino, and AAPI communities, digital ad investments, partnerships with progressive organizations like House Majority PAC and Sixteen Thirty Fund, and building progressive infrastructure for voter engagement.
