The Center for Political Accountability (CPA) is a non-profit, non-partisan organization based in Washington, DC, founded in 2003. It focuses on transparency and accountability in corporate political spending, seeking to provide companies with a framework for managing political expenditures and associated risks. CPA aims to encourage responsible corporate political activity, protect shareholders, and strengthen the integrity of the political process by promoting disclosure and oversight of political spending across various channels, including contributions to political committees and tax-exempt organizations used for political purposes. The organization conducts research and publishes benchmarks and guidance, notably the CPA-Zicklin Index, which assesses disclosure practices and political spending among Russell 1000 companies, and the CPA-Zicklin Model Code of Conduct for Corporate Political Spending. Its work involves engaging companies to adopt or align with governance standards that enhance control over political spending and reporting. A recent development noted is the launch of the CPA-Zicklin Model Code of Conduct and related materials intended to support corporate governance around political spending.
