This is a class blog for the students of POLSCI 426: Congressional Politics at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.
Another Look at Citizens United
Looks like Congressional Dems are going to try to get the IRS to investigate PACs to make sure they are breaking the 51% barrier of spending in their budgets in areas other than political activity. My stance is that each viewpoint has its own funding so I do not see a problem with the money in politics but clearly Dems in Congress do.

It nice that the IRS is investigating this but not quite sure if dissolving Citizens United would really make that much of a difference as candidates have other means of securing money....maybe if there was some money cap like in other countries it could re-focus attention away from campaiging....
I personally don't care much about the results of citizens united. I feel like it is not a big deal but really wish there was a full disclosure rule as to where the money comes from.
