You remember Adelson -- one of those wealthy donors at whose feet Walker grovels.
Billionaire Sheldon Adelson Gives $650,000 to State GOP. (Urban Milwaukee, 10/27/2014)
What happens when you can buy "freedom of speech".
Adelson’s six-figure contribution to the Wisconsin GOP was made possible by changes in state law wrought by recent court rulings.
“In the past, an individual’s contributions to PACs or parties was effectively limited to $10,000 because of the $10,000 aggregate limit in contributions in any one year,” said Reid Magney, spokesman for the state Government Accountability Board.
But a federal court ruling earlier this year struck down the aggregate limits for individual contributions. In response, the GAB in May said it would no longer enforce limits on how much individuals can give to parties and political action committees. Its website now states that these contributions are “unlimited."
