Domestic (USA) Court Strikes Down Regulations Limiting Nonprofits' Campaign Funds
A federal appeals court has struck down regulations that strictly limited how nonprofit groups raise and spend money for political campaigns.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit made the ruling in a lawsuit brought by Emily's List, which backs women Democratic candidates who support abortion rights. The group had challenged the regulations, which went into effect in 2005, as being an unconstitutional infringement on its free speech rights.
