## Resource

The Supreme Court just handed Republicans a major win right before the midterms, overturning a lower court ruling that blocked political parties from accessing discounted broadcast ad rates. The Court ruled the appeals court lacked jurisdiction, restoring the “lowest unit charge” rates—which could save millions in campaign spending. While Democrats argued only candidates should qualify, the majority held that denying parties these rates disrupts voter outreach during critical election weeks. Justice Jackson was the lone dissenter. With the GOP already booking millions in ads at the cheaper rates, this decision reshapes campaign strategy as Election Day nears.
