Trump administration asks Supreme Court to act again in TV ad rate fight
The Trump administration filed an emergency application asking the Supreme Court to rein in a lower court in the dispute between the major parties over cheaper political TV ad rates.
The Trump administration on Thursday asked the Supreme Court to step into a fight over who can get low television advertising rates before an election. The New York Times describes the filing as an emergency application.
The Hill reports the administration wants the justices to chastise a lower court for intervening again in the legal fight between the two major political parties. The Hill also reports that the Supreme Court sided with the GOP last month in an earlier ruling involving Democrats. Its report was cut off, and the details of that ruling were not included.
The New York Times says the application is the latest move in a monthslong dispute over who is entitled to low rates for political ads.
