Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Members of the PAC provide additional donations or pay dues to support the organization's activities because general membership fees in any nonprofit organization cannot be used to support these activities. A primary activity of a PAC is to endorse candidates for public office and provide an avenue for professional political action activities. PACs do not specifically develop policy for the organization. They are not collective bargaining agencies and are not developed to file lawsuits.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

Informal networking meetings are designed for those attending to get to know one another. Because these are informal meetings and not associated with a formal, national group, there is no requirement to pay dues. Networking is not associated with television networks. The focus is on nursing networking, not support of the church where the meeting is held.
