Holtzman Vogel Files Suit on Behalf of American Future Fund Challenging NYS Regulations Under First Amendment
New York has adopted broad campaign finance regulations that require any organization that engages in issue advertisements to register with the New York State and New York City Board of Elections and disclose its donors if the issue advertisements touch on issues that are “distinctive” to any candidate running for public office in New York. American Future Fund is concerned about the rise of socialism in New York City and would like to run advertisements in New York City criticizing socialism and socialist policies without mentioning any candidate for public office. Concerned that doing so could be construed as a violation of New York’s broad and vague campaign finance regulations, American Future Fund has filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York challenging New York’s regulations under the First Amendment.
Holtzman Vogel is proud to represent American Future Fund in this lawsuit.
