Political Law is a survey course that examines the
regulation of politics - state and federal - focusing on one of the most
dynamic, expanding and controversial areas of the law.  The subject matter
combines constitutional law, statutory development and application,
administrative law - all in the context of the best and the worst in the
American political process.  The lectures and readings will cover campaign
finance regulation, election law, lobbying and ethics regulation and the tax laws
affecting lobbying and political activities.  For additional
information, contact Mike Wittenwyler at wittenwyler@gklaw.com or 608-284-2616. Also, for students especially interested in the subject matter, Mr. Wittenwyler is generally willing to supervise a separate, but related, one-credit Directed Research project.
