(The Center Square) – The U.S. Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision Tuesday, struck down 50-year old limits on political party spending for campaigns, a decision that could unleash swaths of funding into campaigns across the country.

Vice President JD Vance brought the lawsuit, National Republican Senatorial Committee v. Federal Election Commission, as a then senator from Ohio several years ago. He argued rules preventing candidates from coordinating campaign expenses go against the First Amendment rights of a candidate running for office.
