Court Overturns Limits on Political Ads, Part of the Campaign Finance Law - New York Times
This decision is good news for Americans against part of a law (McCain-Feingold) that is unconstitutional because it violates the First Amendment. Political speech is required to be the freest kind in order to allow democracy to work. Restricting money in political or policy advertising, whether such ads include candidates names or not, restricts that freedom and is against the best interests of the electorate. Hopefully, the Supreme Court will agree.
