Heather Gerken, J. Skelly Wright Professor of Law at Yale Law School and an expert on election law, testified on February 2, 2010, before the U.S. Senate Committee on Rules and Administration in a hearing titled “Corporate America vs. The Voter: Examining the Supreme Court’s Decision to Allow Unlimited Corporate Spending in Elections.” The hearing followed the U.S. Supreme Court’s January 21 ruling in Citizens United v.
