“FPPC agrees to settlement in Citizens case”

California’s Fair Political Practices Commission has issued this press release, which begins: “Following unfavorable court decisions, the state Fair Political Practices Commission has agreed to settle a lawsuit that challenged the commission’s authority to limit contributions to state candidate-controlled ballot-measure committees.” (Link via Political Muscle.) That court decision was not on constitutional grounds, but instead on the authority of the FPPC to limit contributions to such committees under Prop. 34.
