LAWSUIT SEEKS TO ERASE STATE FINANCE LAWS | News Service of Florida


THE CAPITAL, TALLAHASSEE, Sept. 29, 2010… A handful of Florida activists – backed by the conservative Institute for Justice – filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday in Tallahassee to overturn the state’s campaign finance laws.

The four activists, from the Sarasota-area, said they were seeking to air their own radio ads opposing Amendment 4, the November ballot measure that would put land-use plan changes before voters. But the lawsuit claims the four were rebuffed after learning they would have to form a regulated political committee to run such spots.
