NEW CAMPAIGN GUIDE

FOR CORPORATIONS

AND LABOR ORGANIZATIONS

The Commission reeently published a

Campaign Guide for Corporations and

Labor Organizations to help the following

organizations comply with the Federal

Election Campaign Act (the Act) and CommissionRegulations:

1. National Banks

2. Corporations With Capital Stock

3. Corporations Without Capital Stock

4. Incorporated Membership

Organizations

5. Incorporated Trade Associations

6. Incorporated Cooperatives

7. Labor Organizations

Although these organizations are prohibited, under the election law, from using

their general treasury funds to make contributions and expenditures in connection

with federal elections, they may engage in

a number of activities that support federal

elections. Part One of the Guide explains

how a corporation or labor organization

may establish and operate a separate segregated fund (Le., a political committee

popularly called a PAC) that supports candidates for federal office. Part Two discusses other permissible activities by COl'-

porations and labor organizations, such as

making partisan and nonpartisan communications and using their facilities in connection with federal election activities. Part

Three reproduces FEC reporting forms and

shows how to fill them out.

Based on the Act and Commission Regulations, the Guide includes citations to regulations and selected advisory opinions. The

Guide has been sent to all separate segregated funds registered with the Commission. Copies of the Guide are available free

of charge by contacting: Office of PUblic

Communications, Federal Election Commission, 1325 K Street, N.W., Washington,

ADVJSQRY OPINIONS: SUMMARIES

An Advisory Opinion (AO) issued by the Commission provides guidance with regard to the

specific situation described in the AOR. Any

qualified person who has requested an AO and

acts in accordance with the opinion will not be

subject to any sanctions under the Act. Other

persons may rely on the opinion if they are

involved in a specific activity which is indistinguishable in all material aspects from the activity

discussed in the AO. Those seeking guidance for

their own activity, however, should consult the

full text of an AO and not rely only on the

summary given here.

AO 1982-4: Procedures for Reporting

campaign's Renovation

or Leased Property

Before occupying its campaign headquarters, the

Jerry Apodaca for U.S. Senate Committee (the

Committee) had to undertake extensive renovations of its office space. The labor for the renovations was voluntary. Some of the materials used in

the renovations were donated and some were purchased. In the rental lease with the Committee,

the owner of the building agreed to apply the

costs of the renovations toward the Committee's

rent. The Committee should report the office

renovation and rental expenses as follows:

Vohmteer Labor - Since volunteer services provided by the various carpenters, plumbers, electricians, carpet-installers and other tradesmen

are exempt from the Act's definition of contribution, the Committee does not have to report these

uncompensated services. 2 U.S.C. §431(8)(B)(i).

If, however, these individuals had been compensated for their work, any payments they received

would be considered contributions from the payor

and would be SUbject to the Act's contribution

limits, prohibitions and reporting requirements.

Building Materials - The Committee must report

expenditures for building materials as "disbursements" on line 17 of FEC Form 3. Any disbursement in excess of $200 to a particular person

must be itemized in accordance with Section

104.3(b)(3) of Commission Regulations. On the

other hand, any materials donated for the renovation must be considered contributions SUbject to

the Act's limits, prohibitions and reporting requirements. In this case, the Committee must

determine the usual and normal charge for the

donated materials and report their value as inkind contributions. II CFR 104.3(a)(2).

3

OlCset in Rent - The offset to operating expen

tures, which the Committee will realize as 

result of deducting the renovation expenses fro

its rent, should be reported as a receipt entry 

FEC Form 3, Line 14, "Offsets to Operat

Expenditures," The entry should be listed as 

receipt from the lessor and clearly annotat

"Offset of Tenant Financed Improvement Agai

Rent." The rental expense should also be repor

as an expense entry on FEC Form 3, Line 

"Operating Expenditures," and noted as a non-ca

offset against the value of the Committee's i

provements. The offset of the improveme

against the rent may be reported as a sin

transaction (l.e., a single entry) on one report 

as monthly entries until the offset credit is 

hausted. The Commission conditioned its appro

of these reporting procedures by noting that:

1. The Committee may not deduct as offs

from its rent any property improvements th

it plans to take with it when the le

expires.

2. Alternatively, if the lessor later directs 

Committee to remove property impro

ments at the end of the lease, a quest

might be raised requiring the Commission 

determine whether the lease agreement c

formed with the lessor's usual and norm

charge and practice for commercial leas

(Political committees must pay for goods a

services at the usual and normal charge 

avoid receiving a contribution. 11 C

100.7(a)(1).) (Date issued: May 14, 19

Length: 4 pages)

AO 1982-19: Receipts and Disbursements for

Testing-the-Waters Aetivities of

Potential Presidential C8ndidate

If Senator Alan Cranston (D-Califomia) sho

decide to become a 1984 Presidential candida

funds that were received and disbursed by 

committee formed on his behalf to test the w

ters for his potential candidacy, the Crans

Presidential Advisory Committee (the Comm

tee), would become "eontributlons" and "expen

tures" subject to the reporting requirements, li

its and prohibitions of the Act. 11 CFR 100.7

(I), 100.8(b)(l) and 101.3. These Commission Re

ulations would apply to the Committee, and n

just to Senator Cranston, because he authoriz

the Committee.

In the event Senator Cranston becomes a Pre

dential candidate, funds received and disburs

during the testing-the-waters period would 

SUbject to the following requirements:

continu
1. Section 101.3 of FEC Regulations would apply to the Committee's financial activity

during the testing-the-waters period. Specifically, Section 101.3 requires an individual,

prior to becoming a candidate, to keep records of the name of each contributor, the

date of receipt of his/her contribution and

the amount of total contributions received

and expenditures made.

2. Although the Committee could accept donations in excess of the Act's limits, as well as

donations from prohibited sources, during the

testing-the-waters period, the Committee

would have to refund these donations within

10 days after Senator Cranston became a

Presidential candidate, as defined by the Act

and Commission Regulations. 2 U.S.C. S43l

(2); 11 CFR 100.7(b)(I) and 101.3. The initial

receipt of these donations, as well as their

refund, would have to be disclosed on the

first report filed by Senator Cranston's authorized Presidential campaign committee.

3. Advisory groups formed to do research, and

to brief Senator Cranston on public issues of

interest to him as a Senator and as a potential candidate for the Presidency, would fall

within the testing-the-waters exemption because the groups were organized to further

the Committee's testing-the-waters purpose.

Consequently, the receipts and disbursements

of the advisory groups, exempt during the

testing-the-waters period, would also become "contributions" and "expenditures" subject to the law's requirements should Senator

Cranston become a Presidential candidate.

During the testing-the-waters period, they

would also be subject to the recordkeeping

requirements of 11 CFR 101.3.

4. An individual could give up to $1,000 to the

Committee, if Senator Cranston became a

Presidential candidate, and up to $1,000 to

Senator Cranston's 1986 Senate campaign

committee, provided the contributions to the

separate campaigns complied with Section

110.I(f) of Commission Regulations.

5. A $1,000 donation made by an individual to

support Senator Cranston's testing-thewaters activities would be subject to that

individual's $25,000 overall contribution limit

for 1984, if Senator Cranston became a Presidential candidate.

6. All funds expended for testing-the-waters

activities would become "expenditures," subject to the expenditure limits of Section

110.8 of Commission Regulations, should Senator Cranston decide to accept public funding for his Presidential candidacy.

The Commission did not specifically answer 13

questions posed by the Committee because, as

general questions of interpretation, they did not

qualify as advisory opinion requests. See 11 CFR

112.I(bXI). Commissioner Thomas E. Harris filed

a dissenting opinion. (Date issued: May 6, 1982;

Length: 8 pages, including dissent)

AO 1982-26: Status of Municipal Corporations

as ftCorporations" for Purposes

of Association's Solicitations

Under the Act, municipal corporations are cons

ered "corporations" subject to the same soliei

tion rules as are other kinds of corporate me

bers solicited by a trade association. 2 U.S

SS44Ib(a), 441b(b)(2)(C) and 44I b(b)(4)(D). T

American Public Power Association (APPA), 

trade association, must therefore obtain the e

clusive written approval of each of its memb

municipal corporations before soliciting contrib

tions to its separate segregated fund (PAC) fro

the corporations' executive and administrati

employees.

The Commission's opinion reaffirmed AO 1977-3

Which had held that, while APPA's member m

nicipal corporations could not contribute to 

PAC, APPA could solicit the municipal corpora

members' executive and administrative employe

after obtaining written approvals from the co

porations. Commissioner Thomas E. Harris filed 

concurring opinion. (Date issued: May 14, 19

Length: 4 pages, including concurring opinion)

AO 1982-30: Discount Coupon Books Sold as

Campaign Pundraising Item

The Sunrise-Sunset Corporation (the COrporatio

which produces books of discount coupons r

deemable at various Washington, D.C. resta

rants, may sell the coupon books as a fundraisi

item to a Virginia Congressional candidate, pr

vided the corporation charges the candidate t

usual and normal fee. 11 CFR 100.7(a)(I)(iii). T

corporation may sell the books to the candidate 

a volume discount rate (based on the number 

coupon books ordered) if:

1. The corporation routinely offers similar d

counts to nonpolitical purchasers in the or

nary course of business; and

2. The discount is equivalent to the volum

discount offered to any other purchaser bu

ing the same number of coupon books.

Since the restaurants had agreed to participate 

the coupon plan in order to attract business rath

than to finance political campaigns, they wou

not be making contributions to the candidate 

virtue of either being included in the books 

honoring the coupons sold by his campaign. (Da

issued: May 14, 1982; Length: 2 pages)

AO 1982-31: Legal and Aeeounting Services

Provided to Campaign by Law

Student PartiallySupported by . Scholarship

Law student Eric Koenig may continue receivi

part of his Root-Tilden Scholarship ($170/wee

while providing legal and accounting services 

the LaRocco for Congress Committee (the Co

mittee) as a summer intern. At the same time, 

may accept $50 a week from the Committee. T

scholarship stipend will not result in a contrib

tion to the Committee from either the Ro
Tilden program or from Mr. Koenig if his legal

and accounting services are provided solely to

ensure the Committee's compliance with the Act.

The Committee must, however, report Mr.

Koenig's services in accordance with Section

104.3(h) of Commission Regulations.

Under the Act and Commission Regulations, legal

and accounting services are specifically exempted

from the definitions of "eontrlbution" and "expenditure" if: 1) the services are provided solely for

the purpose of ensuring compliance with the Act;

and 2) the person paying for the services is the

regular employer of the individual rendering the

services. 2 U.S.C. §§43l(8)(B)(ix)(II), 431(9)(B)

(vii)(U); II CPR 100.7(b)(14) and 100.8(b)(15). For

purposes of this exemption, the Root-Tilden program is considered Mr. Koenig's "regular employer" because: 1) he would receive the scholarship

stipend whether he worked for the Committee or

for some other organization that met the RootTilden program's criteria and 2) the scholarship

funds are taxed as income to him.

Additionally, Mr. Koenig would not be making a

contribution to the Committee if he provided

other services commensurate with the $50 per

week he is being paid by the Committee or if he

provided volunteer services (Le., services not

compensated by anyone). 2 U.S.C. S43I(S)(B)(i).

(Date issued: May 20, 1982; Length: 4 pages)

AO 1982-32: Qualification of Former Draft

Committee as Multi<!8l1didate

Committee

The Jackson Can Win Committee (the Committee), an unauthorized draft committee organized

in August Hl80 to advocate the Presidential candidacy of Senator Henry Jackson (De-Oregon), currently qualifies as a multieandidate committee

under the Act and Commission Regulations. See 2

U.S.C. §44la(a)(4) and II C.F.R. IOO.5(e)(3). The

Committee may therefore contribute up to $5,000

per election to Senator Jackson's reelection campaign, as well as to the campaigns of other

federal candidates. 2 U.S.C. §441a(a)(6); 11 CFR

110.1(a)(2). As an WlIlUthorized committee, the

Committee must, however, exclude Senator Jackson's name from its title and file an amended , Statement of Organization (FEC Form 1) reflecting this change. 2 U.S.C. §432(e)(4); 11 CFR

102.14(a).

The Commission noted that, although the Committee had filed an amended Statement of Organization in April 1982 indicating that it supported

more than one federal candidate, the Committee

qualifies for multicandidate status now because

the six-month qualification period dates from the

time a political committee files its originsl Statement of Organization (in this case, in 1980). (Date

issued: May 14, 1982; Length: 2 pages)

ON 1979-80 CONGRESSIONAL RACES

campaigns waged by successful candidates

for U.S. Senate and House seats accounted for

approximately half of the total money raised and

spent by all 1980 Congressional campaigns. The

same successful candidates received 67.6 percent

of all nonparty/noncandidate committee contributions to Sena te and House campaigns.

These figures were taken from the FEC's Final

Report on Financial Activity for 1979-80 u:s:

Senate and House Campaigns, released on March

7, 1982. The report shows that the 34 candidates

who won election to the Senate raised a total of

$41.7 million, spent $40 million and received

$1.0.2 million from nonparty/noncandidate committees to finance their primary and general

election campaigns. Their counterparts in the

House (440 candidates) raised $86 million, spent

$78 million and received $27 million from nonparty/noncandidate committees. Comparable figures for the 1977-78 election cycle showed that

35 Senate winners raised $43 million, spent $42.3

million .and receive~ $6 million from nonparty/

nonc?ndldate committees, House winners (438

FEe v.. HALL-TYNER ELECl'ION CAMPAIGN

COMMlTI'EE

On May 6, 1982, the U.S. Court of Appeals

for the Second Circuit issued an opinion in FEe v.

Hall-T er Election Cam ai n Committee (Civil

Action No. -6229 • The appeals court upheld an

earlier ruling by the U.S. District Court for the

Southern District of New York that the recordkeeping and disclosure requirements of the Act,

as applied to the Hall-Tyner Campaign Committee (the Committee), would abridge First Amendment rights of the Committee's supporters." (The

Committee was the principal campaign committee for the 1976 Presidential nominees of the

Communist Party, U.S.A.)

The FEC's suit arose from an unresolved compliance matter involving the Committee's failure to

keep records of, or to disclose on its reports, the

names and addresses of certain contributors who

had elected to remain anonymous. In affirming

the district court's decision, the appeals court

found that the Committee had met the standard

set forth in Buckley v. Valeo for exempting minor

parties from the Act's disclosure requirements;

l.e., the Committee had demonstrated a "reasonable probability" that disclosure of the names of

its contributors would SUbject them to governmental or private harassment. Buckley v. Valeo,

424 u.s. at 72-74. Moreover, the appeals court

cited the Court's holding in Buckley that the

governmental interest served in disclosing 

source and amount of contributions (Le.,
