What is a political action committee PAC used for?
It is used to raise and disburse funds for political campaigns. Under US campaign finance laws, PACs are treated differently from either a political party or a candidate's own campaign funds.
The influence of interest groups through the courts occurs through?
In the United States system of federal judiciary the courts are independent but still at threat to the influences by special interest and lobbies. These political threats to judicial impartiality come from campaign finance laws and how the executive and legislative branches pander to constituents. Campaign finance can influence the president toward a certain nominee. In turn the Senators who have the authority to confirm judicial nominees are also subject to the influence of interest group funding. These two confluences of interest group funding can corrupt judicial impartiality and the very selection process thereof. Interest groups can affect state laws and in many jurisdictions attorney generals, prosecutors, law enforcement chiefs and judges are elected making the system inherently partisan.
