The event featured Professor Coates, Harvard Law Professor Charles Fried, and Free Speech For People Legal Director Ron Fein, discussing foreign influence in elections, how Citizens United opens the door to foreign influence through corporate political spending, and innovative legislative solutions (starting with our groundbreaking legislation in St. Petersburg, FL) to address political spending by foreign-influenced corporations.
