Answer:

B

Explanation:

The Supreme Court voted 5-4 on this ruling overturning election spending restrictions dating back over 100 years.

It was always believed that the government was responsible for preventing corruption by restricting corporate and other group spending on elections.

This ruling written by Justice Anthony Kennedy states that "limiting 'independent political spending' from corporations and other groups violates the First Amendment right to free speech."

After peace is declared, what happened during the boston tea party
spin [16.1K]

The historical significance of the Boston Tea Party is recognized more in the British response than in the event itself. As a result of the Boston Tea Party, Parliament passed the following laws designed to punish the Americans.

1.) The Boston Harbor Bill – This bill closed the harbor to all commercial traffic until Bostonians paid for the tea they dumped.

2.) The Administration of Justice Act – This act required the extradition (transfer) of all royal officials charged with capital crimes in America to courts in Great Britain.

3.) Massachusetts Government Act – This act ended self-rule in the colonies and made all elected officers in America subject to British appointment.

4.) Quartering Act – This was simply a new version of the 1765 Quartering Act which required Americans to provide accommodations (housing , food, clothing etc.) to British soldiers if necessary.

5.) Quebec Act – This act extended the Canadian border (British territory) into the Ohio River Valley and eliminated lands that were claimed by Massachusetts, Virginia and Connecticut.

These acts were called the Intolerable Acts in America and resulted in the formation of the Continental Congress.
