## Resource

The Supreme Court temporarily halted a lower court ruling that blocked Republican party committees from accessing cheaper TV ad rates, a move seen as a major advantage ahead of the midterms. Backed by the Trump administration, Republicans argue the discount helps stretch campaign budgets, while Democrats like Jon Ossoff and Sherrod Brown pushed back, claiming only candidates should qualify — a stance they previously won in court. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented, urging the Court to wait for FCC review, but for now, GOP committees get the cheaper rates as they prepare a full appeal.
