The U.S. Supreme Court’s Tuesday decision to strike down caps on coordinated spending by political parties and candidates could boost GOP Senate nominee Ken Paxton, giving national Republicans a new tool to eat into James Talarico’s fundraising edge.

The 6-to-3 decision eliminated federal limits on how much political parties could spend on expenses like advertising in coordination with their candidates, with the high court finding that such caps violated the First Amendment.

As a result, political parties can spend without limit, in direct coordination with candidates, likely opening the floodgates to even more political advertising and spending.

“This is a massive victory for the First Amendment,” Republican National Committee Chair Joe Gruters said in a statement. “The RNC has been preparing for this ruling, and we are ready to expand the ways we directly help and provide resources to Republican candidates across the country.”

The ruling could be especially meaningful in Texas’ U.S. Senate race, where Talarico has posted astronomical fundraising totals while Paxton has lagged not just his opponent, but other Republicans in key states. Talarico had $9.9 million in the bank at last count compared to Paxton’s $2.3 million, a disparity that appeared to be one of the Austin Democrat’s biggest advantages in the race.

Trey Trainor, a longtime GOP operative in Texas who previously chaired the Federal Election Commission, said the decision “would definitely make up for any of the fundraising woes that [Paxton’s] had here in Texas.”

“In other states where the Republicans are doing really well and the Democrats aren’t, the DNC will be able to come in and bridge that gap there as well,” Trainor said, noting the advantages run both ways.

While the decision does grant both parties the same coordination powers, Republicans are expected to reap more immediate benefits.
