In 2010, the Supreme Court’s historic ruling in the Citizens United case blew the lid off corporate and union spending on American politics. That spending surged, and has changed our nation’s political life. Tilted it further toward big money. Yesterday, the high court was looking at big money and politics again. This time, the court could blow a lid off individual political contributions. Just 1200 wealthy Americans currently max out, hitting those limits. The complaint is, that’s an offense to their free speech. This Supreme Court may agree. Up next On Point: money politics and the high court, again.
