write up to 300 words to justify the case for one side of the following debate
Pro: The power of Political Action Committees (PACs) needs to be curtailed in US politics. Too many rich interest groups are able to buy access to members of Congress via their PAC contributions. The result is that big business has far too much influence on election outcomes and how Congress votes. PACs should either be abolished or have their maximum contributions greatly reduced.
Con: The influence of Political Action Committees (PACs) is greatly overstated by those who advocate their abolition or restrictions on their contributions. PAC resources are nice to have for any interest group, but these financial resources are not determinative of political influence. PACs help represent many occupational groups. Given how many groups contribute, no single group can dominate policymaking.
