Free Speech Versus Colorado Law

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 02:00 PM PDT

Robert Frommer of the Institute for Justice published an excellent op-ed in the Denver Post today about the incomprehensible morass of Colorado's campaign finance laws. It begins:
In America, the only thing you should need to speak out is an opinion. But this election season, groups of concerned citizens around the country are finding out that they need more than just their opinions; they also need a lawyer.
But even that isn't enough, as Clear the Bench Colorado discovered. Go read the whole op-ed for the details. Although I'm sadly familiar with Colorado's campaign finance laws, this case flabbergasts me. It's non-objective law at its finest.

I'll have more to say on my own experience with campaign finance laws tomorrow.
