Hitting Home PAC was a 527 organization founded by Pete Buttigieg in 2017.[1] Buttigieg launched the PAC in June 2017, several months after his failed bid for the Democratic National Committee chairmanship in its 2017 election.[2]
Hitting Home PAC was a Carey committee, also known as a "Hybrid PAC", a type of 527 organization which is a hybrid of a super PAC and traditional PAC.[1] The organization aimed to support the Democratic Party in the 2018 election cycle.[3] It aimed to refocus the party to place an emphasis on the message that it would "protect and support people going about their lives."[4] Buttigieg stated a desire for the PAC to focus on supporting heartland Democrats.[5]
It was shut down in May 2019, amid Buttigieg's presidential campaign.[2]
