Do campaign contributions from special interest groups influence judicial candidates when they reach the bench?
The U.S. Supreme Court backed donor privacy in a decision released Thursday, July 1. The closely watched ruling was based on a case from California in which the state's then-Attorney General Kamala Harris tried to require nonprofit organizations to disclose the identities of donors by requiring them to file an unredacted “Schedule B” with their taxes, which would reveal the identities of anyone giving $5,000 or more in money or goods.
A new bill supported by influential N.C. senators would protect the confidentiality of donors to nonprofit organizations and charities.
