Why would a citizens activist organization issue a "voter alert" to its supporters warning them to an upcoming vote in Congress. when they could be potentially fined for violating the burdensome "coordination" section of the bill? Why would a group of citizens concerned about an issue like partial birth abortion or affirmative action run a television advertisement to try to influence the way their Member of Congress votes. when they could be fined for violating new free speech restrictions that are contained in the bill? The ShaysMeehan bill contains a provision that prohibits noncitizens from contributing to campaigns. When you combine that provision with the amendment offered by Representative PICKERING. I believe political contributions by minorities would become suspect.
