"GOA... joined Texas Congressman Ron Paul and other groups and individuals who would have their constitutional rights trampled by the McCain-Feingold Incumbent Protection Act.... The suit alleges that McCain-Feingold gives the Federal Election Commission the power to license and control the nature and content of political communication -- the very core of the First Amendment's Free Speech and Free Press guarantees.... Within 60 days of an election (30 days of a primary), [the Act] would ban GOA TV and radio ads and appearances if those ads even MENTION a congressman or other candidate for office." -- The Gun Owners, July 19, 2002
