Here's what to expect from Pence's post-VP life
Former Vice President Mike Pence is trying to remain out of the spotlight these days, NBC News reports, but there's now some clarity about his future plans.
The big one, per NBC, is the formation of a non-profit social welfare organization, which will likely be active on conservative political issues and keep Pence in touch with donors should he decide to run for president in 2024. The group will not be allowed to engage in campaigning, however. An announcement is expected within the next month, NBC reports.
