WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court will consider a Republican challenge to federal limits on the total amount of money individuals can give to candidates, political parties, and political committees every two years.
The justices said Tuesday they will hear an appeal from the Republican National Committee and an Alabama voter, Shaun McCutcheon, who says he would like to contribute more than the $123,200 allowed under federal law.

If Citizens United is overturned all that will prevail is government censorship. Choosing who gets to make political speech and who doesn't isn't a power that Washington ought to have.
