Right to Rise is a political action committee (PAC) created to support Jeb Bush in the 2016 presidential election. A Super PAC, Right to Rise is permitted to raise and spend unlimited amounts of corporate, union, and individual campaign contributions under the terms of the ''Citizens United'' Supreme Court decision. The creation of the Super PAC was announced on January 6, 2015 by Bush.〔 According to Bush, the name was inspired by Congressman Paul Ryan and 1996 Republican vice presidential candidate Jack Kemp. Bush officially announced his candidacy in June 2015, at which point Mike Murphy took over leadership of Right to Rise. Bush personally raised money for the Super PAC prior to the official announcement of his candidacy.〔 By August 2015, Right to Rise had raised over $100 million. The Bush campaign plans to leave Right to Rise in charge of television and digital advertising efforts, while the Bush campaign will take charge of voter outreach.〔 == Contributors == The following contributors have donated over $1 million to Right to Rise. *Mike Fernandez *Francis Rooney〔 *Bernard Marcus〔 *William Oberndorf〔 *Helen Schwab〔 *Robert Day〔 *Julian Robertson〔 *Charles B.
