Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) on Tuesday announced the formation of a new political action committee, the latest indication he's preparing to launch a 2016 campaign.

Last month, Bush said he was "actively" exploring a White House bid, though he did not establish the usual exploratory committee.
