How much money can a political party spend when the party is working alongside a candidate? That’s the question at hand in a case argued in front of the U.S. Supreme Court this month.
The case will determine both the boundaries of the First Amendment and the influence of big money in the next presidential campaign.
The justices appeared divided during arguments. SDPB’s Lori Walsh talked with University of Sioux Falls Professor Mike Thompson.
Thompson also offers an update on recent decisions from the nation's highest court.
