Williams-Yulee v. Florida Bar, 575 U.S. ___ (2015), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that the First Amendment did not prohibit States from barring judges and judicial candidates from personally soliciting funds for their election campaigns since that specific restriction on candidate's speech was deemed to be narrowly tailored to serve the compelling interest of keeping the judiciary impartial.[1]
