major violations are swept under the rug, and the resulting dark money has left americans uninformed about the sources of campaign spending. the commission's work is essential to the integrity and fairness of the political process and to ensure public trust in government. as the fec explains on their website, campaign finance laws seeks to "limit the disproportionate influence of wealthy individuals and special interest groups in the outcome of federal elections. to regulate spending in campaigns for federal office, and deter abuses by mandating public disclosure of campaign finances. this incredibly significant commission is not performing the job that congress intended. and violators of the law are given a free pass. four vote requirements is unchecked veto power to delay and dismiss flagrant violations, impose significantly lower penalties, and leave major cases without resolution. >> thank you for reading that. i wanted you to read it because i thought the audience might appreciate hearing a piece of what was in your report. what struck me about this was how a sitting member of t

president trump seems to be uninformed of the antiquities act. in his remarks, signing the executive order yesterday, he described the designation of preserving monuments said that he would give the power back to the states. end quote. he truly does not understand the antiquities act nor does he appreciate the bold leadership of all of those presidents, as i mentioned, both democrats and republicans, over a period of time -- eight republicans and eight democrats -- who have used this authority in the appropriate ways to preserve for all americans future and those in the past who have enjoyed these beautiful places to preserve for us access to public lands. i can't tell you how important access to public lands is for school children, for our returning veterans, for our families, for hunters, for emission -- fischer merch -- fishermen. putting the antiquities act back into the hands of a few who are more aligned with special interests to try to open these up to oil and gas exploration is the antithesis of what the antiquities act was all about. so

that may be an uninformed interpretation but i feel somewhat uncomfortable about ruling on the constitutionality of this statute without knowing how the court of appeals, new york court of appeals would interpret the statute. why shouldn't we certify that question of interpretation to that court before we plunge into this first amendment issue? >> the state of new york didn't ask for certification. believe it or not, you know more about the new york statute and you know about any of the statutes and the court that have confronted the florida statute, they had no problems writing them down without an enforcement history. they all have been understood to mean the same thing and i think what you said, what this court said in surround is that plaintiffs of the first amendment challenge have a right to prompt the adjudication despite ambiguities in state law. and so this court used to abstain in first amendment challenges where there was ambiguity in state law. the modern trend in this court case has been to take a crack at it and you have the enforcement history, you know what the statute means on t
