Any idea how “citizen” is defined here? Does this apply, like speech (and campaign donations), to corporations?

- sandworm101 11mo agoYes. In written laws "citizen" generally means any person and/or organization subject to the laws of the state. It doesnt mean just living people who can vote. Many a young law student has pontificated that as non-citizens, visiting tourists have no rights. There is no more loaded a word in US politics, and none more malleable under the law, as "citizen". It means something different in every context.
