Gentlepeople have received several complaints from citizens across Wyoming pertaining to literature against Goverrr Bill Clirton. The, :;terature has no pa:d for line which is a violation of federal election laws. None of tve comptairts were notarized as required by the FEC laws. Consequently. I am sendirg tnis transmittal notarized.
This literature was mailed to Wyomirg citizens in the towns of Wheatland, Torrington. Casper. Rock Springs. Green River and distributed to Catholics at Saint Anthony's Church in Casper. I enclose photo copies of envelopes r which the materials were sent. Also, I am copying the persons who complained to this office. I would ask the FEC to investigate this violation.

Abigail A. Shaine Re: MUR 3698 Assistant General Counsel National Right to Life PAC Federal Election Commission 999 E. Street, N.W. Washington, D.C.20463
Dear Ms. Shaine;
As General Counsel for the National Right to Life Political Action Committee, this letter is our response to the above referred to complaint.
The information you provided us regarding this complaint is very limited. The only information regarding the National Right to Life Political Action Committee that you provided us with your April 7th letter was the one page "reply form" from one of our PAC solicitation letters. As you are, of course, aware, a membership corporation may convey endorsement information to its members. This PAC fundraising letter was only sent to our members.
Thus, we are quite puzzled at why this complaint named us and why the FEC would investigate it. As to the National Right to Life PAC, we request that the complaint be dismissed.
If you need further information or verification of the facts specified above, please advise.
Sincerely,
BOPP, COLESON & BOSTROM

In the Matter of SENSITIVE Enforcement Priority
GENERAL COUNSEL'S QUARTERLY REPORT
I. INTRODUCTION
This report is the second Enforcement Priority System
Quarterly Report. The purpose of this Quarterly Report is to recommend that the Commission no longer pursue the identified
lower priority and stale cases.
II. CASES RECOMMENDED FOR CLOSING
A. Cases Not Warranting Further Pursuit Relative to Other Cases Pending Before the Commission A critical component of the Priority System is identifying those pending cases that do not warrant the further expenditure cf resources. Each incoming matter is evaluated using
Commission approved criteria
By closing such cases the Commission is able to use its limited resources to focus on more important cases.
Having evaluated incoming matters, this Office has identified 16 cases which do not warrant further pursuit relative to the other pending cases.' A short
1. These matters are: MUR 3920; MUR 3930; MUR 3934; MUR 3939; MUR 3942; MUR 3943; MUR 3945; MUR 3948; MUR 3953; MUR MUR 3955; 3957; MUR 3964; MUR 3965; MUR 3967; RAD 94L-22; and RAD 94L-25. -2- description of each case and the factors leading to assignment
of a relatively low priority and consequent recommendation not
to pursue each case is attached to this report. See
Attachments 1-16. For the Commission's convenience, the
narratives for externally-generated matters are immediately
followed by the complaint and response(s) and the narratives for
internally-generated matters are immediately followed by the referral.
B. Stale Cases
Investigations are severely impeded and require relatively
more resources when the activity and evidence are old.
Consequently, the Office of General Counsel recommends that the
Commission focus its efforts on cases involving more recent
activity. Such efforts will also generate more impact on the
* current electoral process and are a more efficient allocation of
our limited resources. To this end, this Office has identified
42 cases that
do not warrant further investment of significant Commission resources.2
Since the recommendation not to pursue the identified cases is
based on staleness, this Office has not prepared separate
2. These matters are: MUR 3132; MUR 3432; MUR 3466; MUR 3470; MUR 3473; MUR 3495; MUR 3558; MUR 3575; MUR 3581; MUR 3594; MUR 3600; MUR 3625; MUR 3647; MUR 3663; MUR 3684; MUR 3698; MUR 3712; MUR 3733; MUR 3744; MUR 3749; MUR 3756; MUR 3759; MUR 3767; MUR 3776; MUR 3779; RAD 92L-26, RAD 93L-25; RAD 93L-26; RAD 93L-29; RAD 93L-31; RAD 93L-33; RAD 93L-35; RAD 93L-36; RAD 93L-38; RAD 93L-39; RAD 93NF-02; RAD 93NF-03; RAD 93NF-06; RAD 93NF-10; RAD 93NF-12; RAD 93NF-15; and RAD 93NF-20. -3-
narratives for these cases. However, for externally-generated
matters in which the Commission has made no findings, the
complaint and response(s) are attached to the report and for
internally-generated matters in which the Commission has made no
findings, the referral is attached. See Attachments 17-53.
Because the Commission has already made findings in five of the
stale cases, no additional information is being attached to this 3 report in regard to these cases.
3. These matters are: MUR 3132, MUR 3432, MUR 3466, MUR 3495, and MUR 3733. * 0
-4-
This Office recommends that the Commission exercise its
prosecutorial discretion and no longer pursue the identified
cases effective August 1, 1994. This will
allow the Legal Review Team adequate time to prepare the Pre--MUR
and MUR files so that the cases can appear on the public record
by September 1, 1994, within 30 days of the August 1, 1994,
closing date. This timeframe also will enable this Office to
prepare closing letters so that the letters can be mailed on
August 2, 1994. Additionally, the Press Office will need time
to review the files for inclusion in one of its press releases.
