Answer:

Explanation:

The Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (BCRA) of 2002, commonly referred to as the McCain-Feingold Act, is a federal law in the United States that limits spending on campaign advertising, specifically targeting large sums of money raised to certain candidates by companies, whether they are based in United States or elsewhere.

However, several of its provisions were restricted or overturned by the Supreme Court on behalf of the 1st Amendment to the Constitution, concerning freedom of expression. Several judgments have concerned this law, including Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission in January 2010, which has been severely criticized by President Barack Obama.
