I didn't understand what the theory of the case was at first. It's a case that mostly complains about Massachusetts treating unions and corporations differently.But then this,
" That Massachusetts prohibits even corporate PAC contributions distinguishes its law from corporate speech restrictions that have been upheld by other courts. Those older decisions go against the grain of recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions; but even under their reasoning, total contribution bans simply go too far. " So it looks like a win.
