BCRA
noun
1 acronym for the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, a 2002 federal law that placed limits on certain kinds of campaign fundraising and spending; much of the act's restrictions were invalidated by subsequent Supreme Court decisions, including Citizens United v. FEC; sometimes referred to as McCain-Feingold, a reference to the bill's champions in Congress
The Supreme Court has struck down various provisions of the 2002 Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (BCRA), often called the McCain-Feingold law in recognition of its main sponsors, former Senators John McCain and Russ Feingold.Reuters
The Roberts court has long been hostile to BCRA, chipping away at the law in favor of less restrictions on political spending in the name of free speech.Politico
