保守派团体对限制超级PAC捐款的缅因州法提出诉讼, Conservative groups sue over Maine law limiting super PAC donations, arguing it violates free speech.

保守派团体和言论自由研究所已提起诉讼,对最近批准的缅因州法律提出异议,该法将个人对超级PACs的捐款限制在5 000美元,并要求捐助者披露。 Conservative groups and the Institute for Free Speech have filed a lawsuit challenging a recently approved Maine law that limits individual donations to super PACs to $5,000 and requires donor disclosure. 诉讼辩称,法律违反了保护独立政治开支的《第一修正案》和《公民联合案》先例。 The lawsuit argues the law violates the First Amendment and the Citizens United precedent, which protects independent political spending. 经选民批准的法律支持者旨在遏制过度的竞选开支,并试图开创一个新的全国先例。 Supporters of the law, approved by voters, aim to curb excessive campaign spending and seek to set a new national precedent.
