| The US Supreme Court Friday granted certiorari in five cases and ordered all briefings on a challenge to the limits on pre-election advertisements introduced as part of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (BCRA) upheld by the Supreme Court in 2003 to be completed by April 18. The two consolidated cases, FEC v. Wisconsin Right to Life, Inc., et al. (06-969) and McCain, et al. v. Wisconsin Right to Life, Inc., et al. (06-970), stem from a District Court ruling that advocacy groups must be allowed to run issue ads in the two-months period immediately prior to elections. |
