A new investigation finds that groups associated with prominent anti-abortion judicial activist Leonard Leo have poured tens of millions into significant state court races over the past two decades.
At the same time, public disclosure requirements for campaign contributions are relatively lax, and voters may not be able to see who gave to a campaign until after judges are sworn in.
In just four years, between 2014 and 2018, the JFI spent over $10 million in state judicial elections, and is currently operating with the goal of injecting more funds into judicial elections than ever. In a statement earlier this year, the JFI said it was “committed to spending more resources on state Supreme Court races in 2022 than in any year in the committee’s history.”
