Petition of the day

The petition of the day is:

16-832

Issues: (1) Whether the First Amendment permits the government to ban or limit independent-spending donations to a political committee that segregates those donations in a separate bank account to be used only for independent spending; and (2) whether a complete ban on any political committee’s financial contribution to any other political committee for any purpose is an adequately tailored constitutional means to achieve a state’s interest in effective campaign-finance disclosure.
