<br/><br/> "In a clear-cut victory for campaign-finance reformers last December, a sharply divided U.S. Supreme Court upheld virtually the entire Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (BCRA)....Its three main provisions were: (1) a ban on 'soft money' donations to political parties by individuals, corporations and unions; (2) restrictions on 'electioneering communications'; and (3) an increase in the limits on donations that individuals may make to candidates for federal office." (SOCIAL EDUCATION) This article explains the case of McConnell v. FEC and includes information about the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, the ruling and the majority and dissenting opinions.
