WATCH: For years, Mitch McConnell has opposed nearly all campaign finance regulations on 1st Amendment grounds. But in a speech from 1987, McConnell called for a constitutional amendment, because spending by ultra-wealthy candidates "distorts the process" and is "not fair."
In his written remarks, McConnell said:— Tom Dreisbach (@TomDreisbach) June 6, 2019
"Members on both sides of the aisle have decried the ease with which wealthy candidates can virtually purchase congressional seats".
He said his proposed constitutional amendment could fix the problem.https://t.co/qfhR1wm3kp
