In May 2014, the Colorado Republican Party (CRP) filed suit in state court seeking a declaratory judgment that would allow it to establish an independent expenditure committee, or “Super PAC,” that could operate outside the otherwise applicable state limits for contributions to political parties. CRP claims that it is entitled under Colorado’s campaign finance laws to accept unlimited contributions for an affiliated Super PAC, and that preventing it from doing so would violate its First Amendment rights.
