A group of activists is protesting in Denver to mark the second anniversary of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that eased restrictions on campaign spending by corporations.
About two hundred people were expected at the Capitol on Friday to commemorate the 2010 decision in the Citizens United case. The Supreme Court ruled in that case that independent political spending by corporations can't be limited under the First Amendment.
Activists planned to protest the ruling and then meet lawmakers. A second protest was planned for early afternoon in downtown Denver.
