A federal appeals court has reinstated a Montana law limiting donations to political campaigns. The law was among several that have been struck down in Montana in decisions citing the Supreme Court’s landmark Citizens United ruling that allowed unlimited corporate spending on elections. But this week, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed an earlier challenge, saying the judge who struck it down needs to provide his full reasoning for allowing unlimited money in political campaigns.
