Another Way, by Lawrence Lessig
S8E4: Jonathan Gienapp

On this episode, Lessig speaks with Jonathan Gienapp, an associate professor of history and law at Stanford University. The two discuss whether the original meaning of the First Amendment gives the people of Maine — or the U.S. Congress — the ability to limit the size of contributions to SuperPACs. Spoiler: The answer is yes.
