Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1, Discuss the filing of amicus curiae, which are friend of the court briefs. These briefs allow interests to submit a group's interpretation of legal or factual questions, hoping the court will consider them when deciding the case.
2, Discuss litigation, which allows groups to challenge laws in an attempt to influence them or have them overturned by the courts.

1, Note that PACs are a significant component to the election campaigns of most members of Congress. As a result, they are highly influential in elections.
2, Discuss the effects that PAC contributions have on the day-to-day activities of elected officials. PACs are able to gain access, but not necessarily secure favorable votes, in return for their contributions.
