Associated Press: Citizens United lawyer targets Texas campaign finance laws
With his win in the Citizens United case and lawsuits lodged nationwide, Bopp has become "the most prolific anti-campaign finance litigator in U.S. history," and the Texas lawsuit could be a proxy for a future challenge at the U.S. Supreme Court, said Tara Malloy, deputy executive director of the Campaign Legal Center, a Washington-based group that has filed briefs in the case supporting Texas' campaign finance laws.
Malloy said a federal ban on corporate contributions to candidates remains in place.
"This Texas case could be a sleeper test for a much larger context," Malloy said.
