Appeals Court judges seem open to Maine limits on super PAC contributions
A U.S. Appeals Court in Boston heard arguments about Maine's voter-approved $5,000 cap on super PAC contributions, with judges appearing open to the idea but cautious about reconciling it with the Citizens United ruling. The case centers on whether contribution limits for independent expenditure PACs violate the First Amendment, as previous courts have largely ruled against such restrictions.
