As much as I loathe Citizens United, that's not how separation of powers works. Yes, SCOTUS is depraved. No, that doesn't mean the legislative branch can pass laws saying "the judicial branch doesn't apply to us anymore."It would also prohibit the Supreme Court from reversing any future campaign finance legislation passed by Congress.
McConnell said the vote was a political stunt by Democrats ahead of the midterm elections
