Answer 2

Answer: They run independent campaigns in support of candidates.

A political action committee (PAC) is an organization that pools campaign contributions from members and donates those funds to campaigns for or against candidates. At the U.S. federal level an organization becomes a PAC when it receives more than $1000 for the purpose of influencing a federal election, and registers with the Federal Election Commission.
