Supreme Court Lets Unions Fund Politicians
The Supreme Court ruled 6 to 2 that unions may establish internal campaign funds for presidential and congressional candidates, with strict segregation from other union money and no mandatory contributions. The decision, reversing lower restrictions, drew dissent over its potential political power for unions and corporations. The Court also limited new school district splits to avoid slowing racial desegregation, and allowed Portland protest materials to be barred in a 50 acre shopping center.
