  • In 2010 the Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision,
    held that certain government restrictions on
    corporate funding of independent political
    broadcasts in candidate elections were
    unconstitutional (Citizens United v. Federal
    Election Commission). This controversial decision
    has been greeted with calls to overturn it by
    amending the Constitution. Respond to this 3-part
    question in your initial post
  • Explain the rationale of the Supreme Court's
    decision in Citizens United (the majority opinion
    by Justice Kennedy).
  • Explain the rationale of Justice Stevens
    dissenting opinion.
  • Evaluate both the majority and minority
    rationales. Explain and justify your evaluation
    by drawing on previous Supreme Court
    interpretations of the 1st Amendment.
