1.The Supreme Court has given big business, unions and nonprofits more power to spend freely in federal elections.
2. President Obama responded, saying the court has given "the special interests and their lobbyists even more power in Washington -- while undermining the influence of average Americans who make small contributions to support their preferred candidates."
