(Evelyn Hockstein\/Pool via AP)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 2:23 PM PT \u2013 Friday, October 1, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>The Supreme Court agreed to review a legal challenge on campaign finance rules brought on by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas). According to reports, federal election law set a $250,000 cap on campaign committee\u2019s ability to repay personal loans made by a candidate following an election.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, Cruz loaned his campaign $260,000. The Federal Election Commission appealed to the high court in July after a lower court sided with Cruz in June by saying the law violated his First Amendment rights.<\/p>\n<p>Cruz argued with the new campaign finance cap by saying it increased the risk of loans not being repaid in their entirety. In addition, critics have said the federal election law made it harder for politicians to run for office.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BREAKING: The Supreme Court adds five new cases to the docket for its upcoming term, including a challenge by Sen.
