314 Action is a nonprofit progressive political action committee (PAC) that seeks to elect STEM educated Democrats to higher office in the United States. [1]
314 Action has stated they inspired by EMILY's List, a progressive, pro-abortion PAC that heavily contributed to Hillary Clinton's failed 2016 bid for president raising at least $60,000,000 for her campaign. [1] 314 Action's founder, Shaughnessy Naughton, stated she founded the group due to her worry about the election of Donald Trump and Trump's refusal to name any climate change experts to his cabinet, claiming that Trump is "anti-science." [1] The express goal of 314 Action is to increase the number of STEM educated Democrats elected to public office. [2] [1] 314 Action has explicitly stated that they will only support Democrats, and will refuse to work with or contribute to any Republican, due to the Democrats supporting green politics stating “We felt we had to pick a team” and that science is not above politics because "politics is not above bringing itself into science." [1]
314 Action has stated their goal in 2020 was to "shame" Republicans who did not take the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States seriously, either for refusing mask mandates or social distancing. [lower-alpha 1] [lower-alpha 2] [5] Namely, the PAC targeted donors to Ron DeSantis, Mike DeWine, and Greg Abbott to "shame" them for supporting candidates that did not take COVID-19 lockdowns and mandatory vaccinations seriosuly. [5]
The organization was founded in 2016 by researcher Shaughnessy Naughton. [6] [7] Naughton is a business owner and a chemist who unsuccessfully ran for Congress as a Democrat in Pennsylvania's 8th congressional district in 2014 and 2016. [8]
The group gets its name from pi (π), a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14. [1]
