  • VP MIKE PENCE at the GOP Convention Site in Charlotte, NC
    Aug 24, 2020 View in browser B Y JAKE SHERMAN , ANNA PALMER , GARRETT ROSS A N D E L I O K U N Presented by THE MESSAGE? … VP MIKE PENCE at the GOP convention site in Charlotte, N.C.: “We’re going to make America great again -- again.” Republicans officially nominated President DONALD TRUMP and PENCE for a second term today. THE PRESIDENT visited the site early this afternoon. “Think about your life just prior to the plague," he told the crowd. This week’s schedule and speakers THIS MORNING WAS YET ANOTHER PIECE OF EVIDENCE for the legion of political observers who believe some high-profile congressional hearings turn out to be a waste of time. MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE spent the morning lecturing Postmaster General LOUIS DEJOY about the USPS -- oftentimes without asking a single question. When they asked questions, they sometimes sounded like this: Do you believe you need to follow the law? Is your backup plan to be pardoned like Roger Stone, Rep. JIM COOPER (D-Tenn.) asked? Why are the Democrats out to get you, Rep. JIM JORDAN (R-Ohio) queried? Why doesn’t this hearing about the USPS include debate about the PPP -- it’s a “waste of time,” Rep. CHIP ROY (R-Texas) said. In addition, the hearing was riddled with technical difficulties. REP. STEPHEN LYNCH (D-Mass.) asked if DEJOY would replace removed sorting machines -- DEJOY said no, but they couldn’t get around to figuring out why, because LYNCH had used up all of his time. MEANWHILE, millions of Americans are wondering if their prescription drugs are going to get delivered, if their mail-in votes will actually be counted and what elected officials are actually doing to make their lives better in the middle of a pandemic and economic recession.

  • CLC V. FEC (21-1376) Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief
    Case 1:21-cv-01376-JEB Document 1 Filed 05/19/21 Page 1 of 19 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CAMPAIGN LEGAL CENTER 1101 14th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20005, Plaintiff, v. Civil Action No. 21-cv-1376 FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION 1050 First Street NE Washington, DC 20463, Defendant. COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF INTRODUCTION Plaintiff Campaign Legal Center (“CLC”) brings this action against the Federal Election Commission (“FEC” or “Commission”) for its failure to act on administrative complaint filed more than a year ago. On May 7, 2020, CLC filed an administrative complaint alleging that Big Tent Project Fund (“Big Tent Project”), a 501(c)(4) nonprofit, violated federal law by failing to register as a political committee and failing to report its contributions, expenditures, and debts. Big Tent Project was formed on February 12, 2020, at the behest of donors concerned about the rising prospect of Bernie Sanders becoming the Democratic presidential nominee. It was formed the day after Sanders won the New Hampshire Democratic presidential primary, and one week after Sanders finished in a virtual tie in the Iowa caucuses. In just over one month after its formation, Big Tent Project spent more than $4.8 million on ads expressly advocating against Sanders and targeting voters in the states whose primary elections followed New Hampshire’s. 1 Case 1:21-cv-01376-JEB Document 1 Filed 05/19/21 Page 2 of 19 But once Sanders’ path to the presidential nomination became nearly impossible, Big Tent Project’s election spending dropped precipitously.

Public Citizen The Unruly Transition he work of a presidential transition team is one of the most important facets of an T administration, even though it is not officially part of an actual presidency. Transition teams formulate policy details and perform the all-important function of vetting potential appointees to staff the next administration. Transition teams have long had quasi-governmental status. Since the Presidential Transition Act of 1963, transition teams of the president-elect have received public funding and office space. Amendments to that act in 2010 and 2015 provided funding for transition teams of presidential nominees for work prior to Election Day, and the laws formalized processes for handoffs between incoming and outgoing administrations.1 Despite the government’s role in funding transitions, laws to ensure transparency and deter conflicts of interest that cover ordinary government work generally do not apply to transition teams.
