INDIANAPOLIS -- Amid a tumultuous week in Washington, D.C., Vice President Mike Pence quietly filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday to form a new political action committee of his own.
Dubbed the Great America Committee, the organization is a leadership PAC. Federal election law allows leadership PACs to raise $5,000 a year from individual donors, unlike super PACs, which can accept unlimited funds.
Leadership PACs are also limited to contributions of no more than $5,000 per year to individual candidates and $10,000 per year to state, district or local party committees, according to the FEC's 2015-2016 federal election guidelines.

Kind of different for a vice president.
