“District Court Rejects Challenge to Disclosure Provisions Upheld by Supreme Court in Citizens United”

CLC: “Today, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia dismissed a challenge to the federal ‘electioneering communications’ disclosure provisions in Independence Institute v. Federal Election Commission (FEC). Last month, the Campaign Legal Center, joined by Democracy 21 and Public Citizen, filed an amici brief in the case, urging the Court to reject the suit, arguing that the exact same disclosure provisions had been upheld by the Supreme Court as recently as the 2010 Citizens United decision.”
