political action groups

Political action groups, or PACs, are organizations formed to raise and spend money to influence political elections and policy decisions. They represent the interests of individuals, companies, or organizations by supporting candidates or advocating for specific issues. PACs collect contributions from their members or supporters and use those funds to finance campaign advertisements, outreach, and lobbying efforts. Their goal is to sway public opinion and lawmakers to align with their interests, playing a significant role in the political landscape by amplifying the voices of their constituents in the democratic process.
