"Corporations and unions may seek to persuade voters in elections."
Explanation: In Citizens United v. FEC (2010) the Supreme Court held that the First Amendment bars the government from restricting independent political expenditures by corporations and labor unions (e.g., spending on electioneering communications). It did not say all campaign regulation is forbidden (limits on direct contributions to candidates and some disclosure rules remain).
