The primary objectives of a political action committee (PAC) include raising funds, supporting candidates aligned with specific interests, and influencing legislation. PACs aim to amplify their voices through financial contributions to campaigns, facilitating access to lawmakers. By strategically supporting candidates who advocate for their goals, PACs can shape political agendas and encourage favorable policies. Ultimately, their activities enhance **political participation** and serve as a means for special interest groups to exert influence in the political arena.
