The high court also tossed longstanding federal limits on spending by political parties in coordination with candidates. This ruling is likely to help Republicans in the November midterms. President Trump reacted to the decision on social media by calling it a big win for Republicans and Democrats. the First Amendment. The justices also upheld state laws that ban transgender girls and women from competing for their schools on female athletic teams.
