Senator Patrick Leahy spoke on March 29 at a Senate hearing in Washington about his concerns about the impact of the Supreme Court's 2010 decision in Citizens United.
Last week, Leahy joined as an original cosponsor of new legislation designed to address the effects of the Supreme Court's 2010 decision in Citizens United. The DISCLOSE Act of 2012 will help put an end to secretive campaign spending by strengthening disclosure laws. Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is the lead sponsor of the bill.
