In ''FEC v. Ted Cruz for Senate'', 596 U.S. 289 (2022), the 6-3 [[U.S. Supreme Court]] invalidated a federal law that limited the ability of a federal candidate to raise campaign contributions to repay a debt by his campaign to himself personally. The Court also found legal [[standing]] by Sen. [[Ted Cruz]] (R-TX) to challenge this provision.

Chief Justice [[John Roberts]] summarized the law before striking it down:
{{cquote|Section 304 of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (BCRA), 116 Stat. 98, 52 U. S. C. §30116(j), further restricts the use of post-election funds. Under that provision, a candidate who loans money to his campaign may not be repaid more than $250,000 of such loans from contributions made to the campaign after the date of the election.}}
