Summary

Hawaiis governor signs a law to curb corporate cash in politics, redefining corporations to limit election spending. This move challenges the Citizens United decision, which allowed unlimited corporate spending on elections. The law, set to take effect in July 2027, aims to reduce dark money influence in politics, following a significant increase in outside spending and dark money in recent elections.
