It was recently brought to our attention that the z College Republican National Committee has never filed a report with the Federal Elections Commission. Upon further investigation in the FEC files, our fears were confirmed. We did, however, find reports froi the Democratic counterpart of the Collecge Republicans which listed contributions as little as $5. 'he budget of the College Republican l4ational Committee :Las been estimated at over 2d7,C000, a figure quoted in a campaign flier by iris ;;ustrow. :ir. 'lustrow is currently the College Republican State Chairr-an of South Carolina.

Though we have not been privy; to the C-IC budget, we have attended events in support of national candidates and issues which well surpassed the $1,000 disclosure requirement. ?lease feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
