Supreme Court strikes down party spending limits in major campaign finance ruling

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

The Supreme Court has struck down federal limits on how much political parties can spend in coordination with candidates, a decision that reshapes campaign finance rules. In a 6-3 ruling, the Court determined that these coordinated expenditure limits violate the First Amendment, overturning a 25-year-old precedent. This ruling could make party committees more attractive for donor money, potentially shifting influence away from super PACs. AI
