Resolution #23-25 HIA Resolution - 2023 The Hoonah Indian Association makes some very good points in RESOLUTION #23-25 Resolution of Support for Thomas Jack.

Worried about institutional corruption?  You should be.  Here is yet another example of corruption by elected officials through the influence of courts which will not allow the hobbling of super PACs.   The legal precedent for super PACs Many people believe that the US Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, which allowed corporations to spend money directly in elections, compels this result. But Citizens United, bad as it was, didn't say anything about super PACs. Instead, starting a few months after the Citizens United decision, a handful of lower courts, based on an unfortunate misunderstanding of Citizens United, decided that the Constitution…
