[2][3] 314 Action has stated they inspired by EMILY's List, a progressive, pro-choice PAC that heavily contributed to Hillary Clinton's failed 2016 bid for president raising at least $60,000,000 for her campaign.

[5] 314 Action has spent $1.2 million on ads backing Maxine Dexter in her bid to succeed Earl Blumenauer, who is retiring from his seat representing Oregon's 3rd congressional district.

The group also reported receiving $350,000 from Robert Granieri of Jane Street Capital, a "major donor to Republicans in the 2022 election cycle" who also contributed $500,000 to EMILY's List's affiliated PAC Women Vote!

During the 2024 election cycle, EMILY's List has also been a prominent recipient of AIPAC funds through its affiliated PAC United Democracy Project and faces allegations of acting on behalf of anti-abortion Republican interests due to fundraising issues.

[8][9][2][10] Both of Dexter's main primary opponents, Susheela Jayapal and Eddy Morales, allege that 314 Action is a front for Republican and pro-Israel interests attempting to conceal their involvement in the election.
