Conservative Group Wants to Strike Down Federal Law Requiring Disclosure of Donors

(Raymond Neupert, WRN) A conservative political group wants to strike down federal elections laws that require it to disclose its donors.

That lawsuit, filed on Thursday by Wisconsin Family Action, is asking a federal court in Green Bay to strike down regulation from the Federal Elections Commission that requires a political action committee to disclose any donor that contributes more than 200 dollars.

Lawyers for the group say that is an illegal imposition on their member's right to freely associate with each other. Advocates for elections reform say it's an attempt to get dark money into elections.
