: How Appealing"Supreme Court Strikes Down 'Millionaire's Amendment'"
Today in The Washington Post, Matthew Mosk and Robert Barnes have an article headlined "High Court Deals Blow To Campaign Finance Law; 'Millionaire's Amendment' Is Ruled Unconstitutional."
The Los Angeles Times reports that "Supreme Court rejects 'millionaire's amendment' to campaign finance reform; It rules that allowing federal office-seekers to exceed normal contribution limits when their opponents are wealthy violates the 1st Amendment."
In The New York Sun, Josh Gerstein reports that "Court Shakes Up Campaign-Finance Law; Decision Likely To Undermine Political Viability of Public Financing." In addition, John Samples and Ilya Shapiro have an op-ed entitled "Let Millionaires Spend."
And USA Today reports that "High court strikes down law on self-financing of campaigns."
