McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform  

Definición

  • AFTER DECADES OF complaints about the excessive influence wielded by high-dollar contributors, the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, better known as McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform, was enacted by Congress in 2001, and in March 2002, President George W Bush signed it into law. The law immediately faced legal challenges, but the Supreme Court upheld its major provisions in May 2003 with only a few changes.
