Santa Clara County Court Judge James Emerson has ruled that limits imposed on by the City of San Jose on individual contributions to the San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber's PAC are unconstitutional. The ruling is a big win for the politically active chamber.
"Today's victory is a victory for all who wish to participate in the democratic process in San Jose and the state of California," said chamber President Pat Dando.
