Justify it all you want, it's still imposing restrictions on workers that aren't there for businesses. I could poke holes in your example if I sat here (for instance, what if their needs for political contribution change through the year because some bill that Bank of America is suddenly lobbying heavily to push through comes up. That option isn't there because now they have to stay within these strict budgeting guidelines), but what's the point. Justify it all you want, it's still a slap in the face to workers that benefits corporations over workers. Remember, this is the governor who defines "special interest groups" as "unions".
