What is a Super PAC?

A super PAC is officially known as an independent expenditure-only political action committee.

Unlike traditional political action committees (PACs), super PACs can raise unlimited donations from individuals, corporations, unions, and other groups.

Super PACs are permitted to spend on advertising for or against political candidates so long as they do not coordinate with or contribute directly to candidate campaigns or political parties.

More than a decade ago, two judicial decisions made super PACs possible. The first decision was Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission and the second decision weeks later was Speechnow.org v. FEC. The federal Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit held that PACs that did not contribute to candidates, parties, or other PACs could indeed accept unlimited contributions from individuals, unions, and for-profit and non-profit corporations to make independent expenditures.

However, super PACs are subject to the same organizational, reporting, and public disclosure requirements as traditional PACs.

Our Leadership

Ben Everidge founded the Looking for America Super PAC on March 25, 2024, filing paperwork for the group with the Federal Elections Commission.

A veteran of professional, campaign, and personal office staff in the United States Senate and U.S. House of Representatives for a decade, Everidge has had a career-long passion for public service and mission-focused campaigns. He has worked on more than two dozen campaigns for federal, state, and local offices with an impressive win-loss ratio and was an independent candidate for the United States Senate seat from Florida in 2024.

Everidge earned his Master’s degree in American government from Georgetown University, where he was named a University Fellow. He is the author of a political novel he published in 2017 titled Hoya: The Watchmen Waketh, in which his fictional 47th president of the United States grapples with national security threats at home and abroad. It’s sequel, Hoya Saxa: Honor Among Grey Ghosts, is forthcoming. Everidge is also editor-in-chief of Thomas, a modern American political independent mediazine.
