Super PAC Contributions the Subject of Alaska Public Office Commission Appeal
On October 4, 2018, the Anchorage Superior Court heard witnesses in the formal appeal of an Alaska Public Office Commission (APOC) decision allowing unlimited contributions to independent expenditure groups.
Several citizens, represented by the nonprofit group Equal Citizens, claim the contributions are pursuant to a 2006 Alaska State law.
APOC relied on the application of Citizens United when it rejected the original claim.
