Subject: Re: PAC-from Steve Kean

The following information needs to be added to the memo:

1.  All contributions are voluntary.  Any amount given, or refusal to give, 
will in no way benefit or disadvantage your position at Enron.  You may 
refuse to contribute without fear of reprisal.

2.  Amounts contributed may be used to make political contributions in 
connection with federal elections and are subject to the limits of the 
Federal Election Campaign Act.

3.  No portion of any contribution is deductible as a charitable 
contributions for federal income tax purposes.

4.  [If guidelines are suggested]  These guidelines are merely suggestions.  
You are free to contribute more or less than the suggested amount.

5.  Maximum contributions to the Enron PAC are $5,000 per year per individual.

6.  Non-U.S. citizens cannot contribute to the Enron PAC.

7.  The law requires that Enron report name, address, employer, and 
occupation for every contribution over $200/year.

I would suggest that the info I've provided above be put at the end of the 
memo.  I think you will see that this info is consistent with the 
solicitation materials we sent out last year.

TO:  Eligible Employees     DRAFT

FROM: Office of the Chairman


Last year the Enron PAC launched a campaign to become a million dollar PAC.  
Enron employees responded and the PAC reached its objective, putting it on 
par with the largest corporate PACs (but still just a fraction of what is 
spent by those who oppose open markets, deregulation and customer choice).  
With the sale of EOG, the announced sale of PGE, one time contributions which 
were not renewed, and normal employee turnover, the PAC,s receipts have 
declined by nearly 20% from the level reached after the last solicitation.  
The PAC needs your help.  Please join.  If you are already a member, please 
consider increasing your commitment.

Every year Enron deals with dozens of issues pending before hundreds of state 
and federal lawmakers.  The Enron PAC is a key tool for supporting those 
lawmakers who represent views which benefit Enron, its employees and its 
shareholders.  In the past year, Enron has been on the winning side in 
several key legislative battles affecting our domestic and international 
businesses:

[Elizabeth is compiling a list - suggestions appreciated]

We face old and new opportunities and challenges this year:

? Efforts to regulate derivative instruments
? Federal electric industry restructuring legislation
? Efforts to regulate or tax the internet

One of the best things about Enron is that we don,t just take things as they 
are.  We challenge the status quo.  We change things.  The PAC helps us do 
that.  We need you to help the PAC.  Sign up today ) and please consider 
membership at or above the following recommended levels.
