Super PACs, or "Political Action Committees," are organizations that can raise and spend unlimited amounts of money to support or oppose political candidates. Unlike traditional PACs, Super PACs cannot directly coordinate with candidates or their campaigns. Instead, they focus on independent expenditures, such as advertisements and other forms of communication, to influence voters during elections.
These groups often attract large donations from individuals, corporations, and unions, which can lead to significant financial power in politics. Super PACs play a crucial role in shaping election outcomes, as they can amplify messages and reach a wide audience, making them a key player in the U.S. electoral process.
