SUMMARY:Money\, Politics\, and the U.S. Constitution
DESCRIPTION:Who gets to decide whether and how to regulate money in our campaigns and elections? For the past 50 years\, the Supreme Court has made itself the nation’s apex regulator of money-in-politics. Through its campaign finance decisions\, the Court has taken many options off the table from state and federal policymakers. But is this the way things should be\, as a matter of constitutional structure? There is a growing movement — which includes state lawmakers from both major political parties — that is calling for a constitutional amendment that would empower Congress and the States to choose whether and how to regulate money-in-politics. In this panel\, we’ll explore the text and theory of the proposed amendment through an interactive discussion with both its advocates and skeptics. Join us for lunch! \n\n\n\nRoom 650 \n\n\n\nParticipants:Brian Boyle\, Executive Director & General Counsel at American PromiseScott Day Freeman\, Goldwater InstituteModerated by: Kory Langhofer\, Managing Attorney at Statecraft PLLC \n\n\n\nThis event is eligible for 1 hour of CLE credit. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Participants\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n          \n                  \n              \n        \n      \n                  Brian Boyle              \n              \n          \n            Executive Director & General Counsel at American Promise           \n        \n                          \n          Brian Boyle is Executive Director & General Counsel at American Promise\, a nationwide non-profit organization that is leading a movement for constitutional reform to reduce the influence of money in politics.
