J _j. c files this complaint seeking an immediate investigation by the 7 c; a > Federal Election Commission into the illegal spending A* practices of the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee (WRSCIt). As the public record shows, and an investigation will confirm, the NRSC and a series of ostensibly nonprofit, nonpartisan groups have undertaken a significant and sustained effort to funnel "soft money101 into federal elections in violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended or "the Act"), 2 U.S.C. 5s 431 et seq., and the Federal Election Commission (peFECt)Regulations, 11 C.F.R. 85 100.1 & sea. 'The term "aoft money" as ueed in this Complaint means funds,that would not be lawful for use in connection with any federal election (e.g., corporate or labor organization treasury funds, contributions in excess of the relevant contribution limit for federal elections). THE FACTS IN TBIS CABE On November 24, 1992, the state of Georgia held a unique runoff election for the office of United States Senator. Georgia law provided for a runoff if no candidate in the regularly scheduled November 3 general election received in excess of 50 percent of the vote. The 1992 runoff in Georg a was a hotly contested race between the Democratic incumbent Wyche Fowler, and his Republican opponent, Paul Coverdell. The Republicans presented this election as a %ust-win81 election. Exhibit 1. The Republicans were so intent on victory that Senator Dole announced he was willing to give up his seat on the Senate Agriculture Committee for Coverdell, if necessary.

PURPOSE To listen to their concerns about the proposed increase in the Defense budget. II. BACKGROUND, PARTICIPANTS, AND PRESS ARRANGEMENTS A. Background: The Senators who are coming to this meeting are generally skeptical about a larger than 3 percent real growth increase. in the out-years. (Cranston, Levin, and Muskie even voted against the 3 percent real growth increase.) They are afraid that proposed increases they have heard about are basically quick­ fixes for SALT. Hart particularly has said "better is better, not more is better." These Senators, however, are realistic enough to expect an increase and, in fact, Cranston is working hard to build a coalition between the Defense-minded Senators and those who do not want any increases. �Senator Culver spoke to the Vice President about the need for this meeting so that he and his colleagues have an opportunity to present their views to you before you make your decision. Although they would like to have a preview of the Five-Year Plans you will be sending to the Hill, they have been told that you will not be making such a presentation. Clearly, the understanding of these Senators, if not their support for larger Defense increases, is essential.

The Arizona Republican with a fondness for puns and a passing resemblance to actor Owen Wilson is one of Congress’s mavericks, willing to buck his party on major issues. In his six terms in the House, he was perhaps best known for his long, lonely fight against spending earmarks -- during which he would take to the House floor, armed with amendments targeting Republican and Democratic projects alike. They were easily turned aside, and earned him the disdain of colleagues who saw his crusade as little more than preening for news reporters. They later adopted Flake’s position, banning earmarks -- funds directed to specific projects -- after a string of earmark- related scandals, rising concern over the budget deficit and the 2010 rise of the Tea Party movement. In a sign of the shifting political winds, Flake in the 112th Congress was named to the Appropriations Committee, which had been the epicenter of earmarking and a hotbed of antipathy toward the Arizona lawmaker.
