I.Allegato Uk~C FG~EA notarized letter fro* ranA Hampton, candidate for Congress, frOM the Third District Of Michigan,, dated December 3, 1975:, alleges that Boward Wolper a candidate from the same district, received contributions for a constituent service office operated in the district in glo which he serves as a Michigan state legislator. Mr. CHampton raises the question whether such contributions made to Pay office expenses of a state legislator who is a candidate for Federal office are reportable contributions under 2 U.S.C. 5434.

II. Evidence Mr. Hampton quotes 1974 and 1975 receipts for the alleged constituent service office of Mr. Wolpe but does not indicate the source of the information. The Howard Wolpe Campaign Committee registered with the FEC on October 10, 1975, and filed a report of receipts and expenditures on January 9, 1976. Mr. Wolpe personally filed a statement of receipts and expenditures on S V ~

January 15, .1976. These reports do not'1aindiot.:- I high as those quoted by Mr. Hampton; they also do "I contributions for the constituent office at issue h~~*. Mr. Wolpe s notarized reply of February 19 '6 through his campaign treasurer, advises that a district service office was established shortly after his *1let~on to state office in 1972 to provide non-partisan .assistance. to the citizens of his district. He further states that 4V this office was incorporated as the 46th District Service of fice, Inc. (hereinafter District Office) in January :.1975 and has been separate from his regular office as a state legislator and his campaign activities as a Federal candidate. r7 The Articles of Incorporation indicate that the District office is a non-profit corporation governed by a Board of Directors; that its existence is apparently perpetual; that in the event of dissolution the assets shall be distributed to the State of Michigan, Department of Mental Health or its successors. The Articles of Incorporation list Mr. Chester B. Rogers as an incorporator and initial board member. Mr. Wolpels Statement of Organization lists Mr. Chester B. Rogers as his campaign chairman. *~*~peIor hsDstridt Ser-Oice O*e octerized as an Qf f ice acCountifor *u;ppottioq9

Dear Mr. McKay:

In response to your request of February 10, 19,76fo information which would clarify, explain and treat the matters raised in Mr. Hampton's letter, please be advised:

1. Howard Wolpe was first elected to the Michigan House of Representatives' 46th District in 1972. Shortly following his election,. the 46th District Service Office was organized to provide assistance on a non-partisan basis to individuals or groups having particular problems with agencies of state and local government, to inform citizens of legislative occurrences, to obtain citizen input regarding matters of state and local concern,. and to provide services to governmental and public service agencies. This office is, and at all times has been,9 maintained on a non-partisan basis completely separate from any campaign functions whatsoever. There is and has been a strict segregation between campaign and legislative service activities. The 46th District Service Office incorporated January 24,9 19 75 under an independant board of directors. The articles and bylaws of the corporation provide for continuation 0 h office irrespective of the individual holding the office or that individual's party affiliation. The Articles of Incorporation further provide that,, should the corporation be dissolved, the assets and all property of the 46th DistrVict Service Office, Inc. would become the property of the State of Michigan Department of Mental Health. A copy of the Articles of Incorporation are enclosed.

Money received from pledges, contributions and fund raising events was initially insufficient to maintain the office. In 1974,, Representative Wolpe had a surplus of campaign funds remaining after his election. With the consent of the contributors, a gift of $2,o734.21 of these unused funds was made to the 46th District Service Office. Representative WQlpi mvaintains the c*ts#, member of the House of -Representatives'at the state in1WtL1$a and maintains whatever campaigh officet etc.. he deslre ,parate apart. from 'the 46th District Service Office. There is no, 111mvai 4t~ or related campaign activity carried ont conducted from; or. associeaedwit11111 the 46th District Service Office.

2. Regarding the status, of the Federal Election Commission advisory opinion concerning office expenses for members. of C pe,,we, believe that such an opinion would not be applicable to the present,, matter, for the following reasons:

a. The 46th District Service Office, Inc.o does no.t provide office expenses for Representative Wolpe but is separate from his regular office as above indicated.

Sb. The 46th District Service Office, Inc. is removed and apart from the 46th District office holder's campaign and state legislative office expenses and is even more rem oved C7" from the campaign and/or office expenses of a candidate for the I";- Third Congressional District.

C c . The 46th District Service Office, Inc. does not provide a campaign office nor are any campaign activities N, conducted from this office. The Howard Wolpe Campaign rem.Committee has a separate mailing address and campaigh, correspondence is not channeled through the Service Office. d . Contributions and expenditures of the 46th District Service Office, Inc. are intended and used for that office and , thereforet do not influence the nomination for election, or election, of Howard Wolpe to federal office.

3. The 46th District Service Office, Inc.-, and not Repre- sentative Wolpe, was responsible for its office maintenance in 1975. The fiscal year of the corporation ends January 31st and appropriate Internal Revenue Tax Returns will be shortly filed by the corporation. Mr,. Qowdon.,Andrew McKay Heoward' Wlpe, Campaign Committee February, 19, 97 Page Three

4. The Howard Wolpe Campaign Committee, which w* " to support the candidacy of Howard Wolpe for the Third Congresslobaj I)UI of the United States House of Representatives,. has received acknowZWg~et of all required filings from the Federal Elections Commission for 1975:.

5. We stand ready to supply any additional information you may require and respectfully request that Mr. Hampton be advised tbat there. are no violations of the Campaign Financing Law raised by his assertion..

According to a recent advisory opinion handed d- by the FEC, office expenses for members of Congress whiLch are over and above the amount appropriated by Congress c and which are paid by private contributions are to be con- sidered as campaign contributions in election years. (I understand that the mentioned opinion has been reet'ed by the U.S. Senate, but that a far broader opinion is being prepared that appears likely to be accepted.), R. o gardless of the status of the various opinions# the quotitien which needs to be answered in Mr. Wolpe's case is whttaIitr K_ the new advisory now being prepared also applies to meiX_: bers of state legislatures who are running for fedef4 - ''K Office* 3. Mr. Wolpe is a self-admitted candidate for Congrso, as many people in Michigan's Third District fully realize. He has raised far in excess of $1,000 in private contzi'i- butions in calendar year 1975 for the purpose of maintainj1~ a district office beyond the level appropriated by thi Michigan legislature. ($9#483.66 in expenditures ver~s, $69356 in funds raised and pledged through September 30,. 1975.) If the new FEC advisory opinion also applies to members of state legislatures who are running for federal offices tChen it would seem mandatory for Mr. Wolpe, to count all funds raised through private contributione.s ans~t his lawful limit and disclose in the specified manner and, time period or risk a violation of federal law. 4. 1 presume that Mr. Wolpe has filed a quarterly report with the FEC. If he has not yet filed, and if it i*1L the, opinion that private fundraising such as his is reportable,' then I presume that he will be required to file a reiort IT. 41, A p

Mr. Brian Hampton 620 W. South St. Kalamazoo, Michigan 49007 OFFICE Gf Et~ Dear Mr. Hampton:

C This is in response-to your letter of October 29 , 1975, inquiring whether Mr. Howard Wolpe, a member of the Michi.. gan House of Representatives, must count all funds raised,, for the purpose of-maintaining a district office in connection with his membership in the Michigan State Legislature - against his expenditure limit as a candidate for Federal Office established by 18 U.S.C. 608, and appropriately disclose these expenditures as required by 2 U.s.c. 434. C As your request asks about the activity of another person, you do not qualify for an advisory opinion under 2 U.S.C. 437f. However, should you wish to file a con- plaint concerning this matter, in keeping with our interim C complaint procedure guideline (Notice 1975-9, copy enclosed), Cyou would be required to file a notarized letter.
