Quizplus · Accepted Answer

PACs (Political Action Committees) are actually created to pool campaign contributions from members and donate those funds to campaign for or against candidates, ballot initiatives, or legislation. At the federal level, PACs can contribute more money to a candidate or a candidate's committee than an individual can. For example, as of the most recent guidelines, an individual can donate up to $2,900 per election to a federal candidate, whereas a PAC can donate up to $5,000 per election to a federal candidate.
