Corporate PACs are a universally vilified part of our campaign finance system, but they have proven indestructible. Microsoft workers not only got theirs suspended, but pushed through a governance reform that will put employees at the table for the first time if it comes back

Do you have any clarity on what they mean by "until the fall"? Fall doesn't seem that far away.
