Leadership PACs, such as Trump's Save America committee, raise money from donors to support political campaigns in the United States.
The committees are set up and controlled by lawmakers or other political leaders, but are not connected to the candidate’s campaign.
Unlike super PACs, which can raise unlimited sums from companies, unions and individuals, individual donors may contribute no more than $5,000 a year to leadership PACs.
CAN LEADERSHIP PACS BE USED TO PAY LEGAL FEES?
However, leadership PACs such as Save America also are not allowed to directly support their own candidate's campaign.
