Congress, Election Reformers Oppose Suit on Allocation Rules
The sponsors of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 - Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Russell Feingold (D-WI) and Representatives Christopher Shays (R-CT) and Martin Meehan (D-MA) - filed an amicus brief on Monday, January 24 in a case in which EMILY's List, a federal political committee, is urging a federal court to throw out a key allocation rule adopted by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) in 2004. The Campaign Legal Center joined the congressional sponsors on the amicus brief opposing the EMILY's List suit. For more information, please visit the Campaign Legal Center's website.
