- Maine asks appeals court to revive super PAC donor limit
Maine officials are appealing a court decision that struck down a 2024 voter-approved law capping contributions to state super PACs at $5,000 annually. The state argues the limit prevents the appearance of corruption, while opponents claim it violates the First Amendment. The appeal involves legal arguments about campaign finance precedents and support from various organizations and individuals.
