Campaign finance reform won’t pass this year in Vermont, according to this report summarizing the sentiments of State Senator Peter Shumlin.

Democratic leaders had wanted to pass a bill after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled corporations and labor unions can spend unlimited cash on political campaigns. A Senate bill would have created transparency by showing which groups paid for political ads and it would have forced a company’s board of directors to approve all political advertising.

Maybe Vermont isn’t “freaking out” after all?
