U.S. District Court Enjoins an Arkansas Law that Forbids Campaign Contributions More than Two Years Before an Election

On June 17, U.S. District Court Judge James Moody, Jr., enjoined an Arkansas law that makes it illegal for anyone to send a campaign contribution to a candidate if the election is more than two years in the future. Jones v Jegley, e.d., 4:19cv-234. The case had been filed in April 2019. The plaintiff, Peggy Jones, wants to contribute to a particular legislative candidate who is running in 2022.

The order is only one page. The state has filed an appeal. Thank to the Institute for Free Speech for this news.
