History of Amarillo Matters

Amarillo Matters PAC was founded in late 2016 by several community leaders who had grown concerned about the leadership of the Amarillo City Council and the overall direction of the city. After successfully working on the 2017 municipal election, the group started to organize so they could continue to make an impact long term.

Our Focus

Amarillo Matters will primarily focus on elected positions in which the elected official has a direct governance responsibility to the citizens of Amarillo and the surrounding area. We will also focus on issues that have a positive benefit on Amarillo and the surrounding area. We believe the word benefit has many definitions. They include economic development projects, major investments in our local workforce and students, along with quality of life projects. 

We realize numerous issues will present themselves in the years to come, especially as our area continues to grow. Because we can’t be involved in all of them, we believe it’s best to limit our involvement to issues that make a significant contribution to our area and do so with a high moral standard.
