V USA se může občan podat $ 2700 za volby do federálního kandidáta, 5000 $ ročně na PAC, $ 10.000 ročně do komise pro státní nebo místní strany a 33.400 $ ročně na národní stranu. Občané a korporace může dát neomezené množství na Super PAC. Super PAC je osvobozen od tradičních finančních kampaň zákonů tak dlouho, dokud to nebude financovat kandidáta nebo kampaně nebo koordinovat přímo s kampaní, jak strávit dary.
