Supreme Court Strikes Down Campaign Finance Regulation-- Sets Back Election Reform Decades

Rob Kall

Smaller Font Larger Font RSS 2.0

The supreme court ruled that corporations could not be restricted in the money they spend on elections. This will also unleash unions to spend more than ever.

The same ruling also reversed the McCain Feingold law that kept corporations and unions from running ads within a certain date before elections.

The NY Times reports, "The court on Thursday overturned a 20-year-old ruling that said corporations can be prohibited from using money from their general treasuries to pay for campaign ads. The decision almost certainly will also allow labor unions to participate more freely in campaigns and threatens similar limits imposed by 24 states."
