COMPLAINT

1. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington ("CREW") and Melanie

Sloan bring this complaint before the Federal Election Commission ("EEC") seeking an

immediate investigation and enforcement action against Americans for Job Security and Stephen

DeMaura, individually and as president and treasurer of Americans for Job Security, for direct

and serious violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act C'FECA").

Complainants

2. Complainant CREW is a non-profit corporation, organized under section

501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. CREW is committed to protecting the right of citizens

to be informed about the activities of government officials and to ensuring the integrity of

government officials. CREW is dedicated to empowering citizens to have an influential voice in

government decisions and in the governmental decision-making process. CREW uses a

combination of research, litigation, and advocacy to advance its mission.

3. In furtherance of its mission, CREW seeks to expose unethical and illegal conduct

of those involved in government. One way CREW does this is by educating citizens regarding

the integrity of the electoral process and our system of government. Toward this end, CREW

monitors the campaign finance activities of those who run for federal office and publicizes those

who violate federal campaign finance laws through its website, press releases and other methods

of distribution. CREW also files complaints with the FEC when it discovers violations of the

FECA. Publicizing campaign finance violators and filing complaints with the FEC serves

CREW'S mission of keeping the public informed about individuals and entities that violate

campaign finance laws and deterring future violations of campaign finance law.

4. In order to assess whether an individual, candidate, political committee or other

regulated entity is complying with federal campaign finance law, CREW needs the information

contained in receipts and disbursements reports that political committees must file pursuant to

the FECA, 2 U.S.C. § 434(a)(2); 11 C.F.R. § 104.1. CREW is hindered in its programmatic

activity when an individual, candidate, political committee or other regulated entity fails to

disclose campaign finance information in reports of receipts and disbursements required by the

FECA.

5. CREW relies on the FEC's proper administration of the FECA's reporting

requirements because the FECA-mandated reports of receipts and disbursements are the only

source of information CREW can use to determine if a candidate, political committee or other

regulated entity is complying with the FECA. The proper administration of the FECA's

reporting requirements includes mandating that all reports of receipts and disbursements required

by the FECA are properly and timely filed with the FEC. CREW is hindered in its programmatic

activity when the FEC fails to properly administer the FECA's reporting requirements.

6. Complainant Melanie Sloan is the executive director of Citizens for

Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a citizen of the United States, and a registered voter

and resident of the District of Columbia. As a registered voter, Ms. Sloan is entitled to receive

information contained in reports of receipts and disbursements required by the FECA, 2 U.S.C. §

434(a)(2); 11 C.F.R. § 104.1. Ms. Sloan is harmed when a candidate, political committee or

other regulated entity fails to report campaign finance activity as required by the FECA. See

FEC V. AMns, 524 U.S. II, 19 (1998), quoting Buckley v. Valeo, 424 U.S. 1,66-67 (1976) I

(political committees must disclose contributors and disbursements to help voters understand

who provides which candidates with fmancial support). Ms. Sloan is further harmed when the

FEC fails to properly administer the FECA's reporting requirements, limiting her ability to

2 review campaign finance information.

P Respondents 4 4 7. Americans for Job Security ("AJS") is a tax exempt organization organized under S

section 501(c)(6) of the Intemal Revenue Code and based in Alexandria, Virginia.

8. AJS is not registered as a political committee with the FEC.

9. Stephen UeMaura is the President and Treasurer of AJS.

J

promoting Scott Brown, then the Republican candidate in the January 19,2010 special election

for a U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts. Americans for Job Security, FEC Form 9.24 Hour

Notice of Disbursements/Obligations for Electioneering Communications. Amended. June 30,

2010, at 3. AJS's advertisement first told viewers that "behind closed doors, Washington

decides the future of our health care, with no transparency or accountability. They are slashing

Medicare and raising taxes, and only listening to the special interests." AJS then said that "one

Massachusetts leader says slow down, get health care right. Scott Brown says protect Medicare,

don't raise taxes, listen to the people, not the lobbyists." AJS's advertisement concluded by

encouraging voters to "call Scott Brown and tell him you agree Washington should listen to us

on health care for a change." Exhibit B, track 1.

23. AJS spent $913,096 on May 3,2010 producing and broadcasting an

election for the Democratic nomination for a U.S. Senate seat in Arkansas. Americans for Job

Security, FEC Form 9. 24 Hour Notice of Disbursements/Obligations for Electioneering

Communications. May 3,2010, at 2. In AJS's advertisement, several Indian speakers

obstensibly "thanked" William Halter for providing jobs to India. The narrator then stated that

"while millionaire Bill Halter was the highly paid director of a U.S. company, they exported jobs

to Bangalore, India," and "with almost 65,000 Arkansans out of work, we need jobs, too." AJS's

advertisement concluded by stating "Bangalore says 'thanks' Bill Halter. Arkansas, tell Bill

Halter thanks for nothing." Exhibit B, track 2.

24. AJS spent $490,000 on May 6,2010 producing and broadcasting another

advertisement criticizing Mr. Halter. Americans for Job Security, FEC Form 9,24 Hour Notice

of Disbursements/Obligations for Electioneering Communications. Amended. June 30,2010, at

I

3. This advertisement first told viewers that "politicians - they say one thing, and do another."

AJS's advertisement then stated "Bill Halter says he's never outsourced American jobs, but the

facts say that when he was a highly paid corporate director, his company outsourced jobs to

India. Those jobs could have boosted a community here in Arkansas, but all they boosted was

Bill Halter's company's bottpm line." The advertisement concluded by encouraging voters to

"call Bill Halter, tell him to support policies for job creation here in America." Exhibit B, track

3. 1 advertisement promoting Ken Buck, then a candidate in the August 10,2010 primary election for

the Republican nomination for a U.S. Senate seat in Colorado. Americans for Job Security, FEC

Form 9.24 Hour Notice of Disbursements/Obligations for Electioneering Communications. June

25,2010, at 2. AJS's advertisement first told viewers that "Washington in a cesspool filled with

political insiders who think more government is the solution." AJS's advertisement then stated:

"Not Ken Buck. Ken Buck stands up to the insiders in both parties. Ken Buck's conservative

plan to get Colorado back to work; No to bailouts, no to debt, no to big government spending.

Yes to low taxes for job creation that helps families." AJS's advertisement concluded by

encouraging voters to "call Ken Buck, tell him to keep fighting for smaller government and

policies that support taxpayers." Exhibit B, track 4.

26. AJS spent an additional $171,700 on June 29,2010 broadcasting the

advertisement, Americans for Job Security, FEC Form 9.24 Hour Notice of

Disbursements/Obligations for Electioneering Communications. June 30,2010, at 3, and a

advertisement criticizing Mr. Buck's opponent in the August 10, 2010 primary election, Jane

Norton. Americans for Job Security, FEC Form 9.24 Hour Notice of Disbursements/Obligations

for Electioneering Communications. July 14,2010, at 3. This advertisement began by stating

"our country is at the brink - Colorado workers and families need relief." AJS's advertisement

then stated: "Yet, Jane Norton supported the largest tax hike in Colorado hisloiy, costing us

billions. And Jane Norton's record on government spending? The state bureaucracy she

managed grew by $43 million in just three years." The advertisement concluded by encouraging

voters to "call Jane Norton, tell her no more tax hikes and government spending." Exhibit B,

track 5.

28. AJS spent an additional $175,956.60 on July 20,2010 broadcasting this

This advertisement began by stating "liberal politicians will say anything, but talk is cheap," as

photographs of Ms. Norton, President Obama, and Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) were shown.

AJS's advertisement then asserted the "real Norton record" is that "Norton pushed the largest tax

hike in Colorado history, as a regulator she managed a multimillion dollar surge in government

spending. Yup, talk is cheap. But Jane Nortori's real record has cost us plenty." The

8

advertisement concluded by encouraging voters to "tell Jwe Norton no more high taxes and

spending." Exhibit B, track 6.

30. AJS spent $45,100 on July 26,2010 producing and broadcasting an advertisement

^ 26,2010, at 3. AJS's advertisement first told viewers "reckless spending, earmarks, debt -

bankrupting our country. Politicians and insiders are at the trough." The advertisement then said

"take Billy Long - he says he's against earmarks, but while on the airport board of directors he

voted to use more than $3 million in congressional earmarks for a brand new bus terminal. A

terminal that now sits empty. The Billy Long bus terminal to nowhere." AJS's advertisement

concluded by encouraging voters to "call Billy Long and tell him we're sick of earmarks and bus

terminals to nowhere." Exhibit B, track 7.

31. AJS spent $54,572 on September 7,2010 producing and broadcasting an

2010, at 3. AJS's advertisement first told viewers the economy is in "a tailspin" with

"unemployment on tlie rise," and "they just continue the taxing, spending, and bailouts." The

advertisement then said "Harry Teague was instrumental in passing a job-killing cap and trade

bill. Teague's tax would mean higher electric rates for families, higher gas prices, and cost us up

to 12,000 jobs in New Mexico." AJS's advertisement concluded by encouraging voters to "tell

Harry Teague to stop his reckless spending, bailouts, and job-killing taxes." Exhibit B, track 8.

32. AJS spent $980,256 on October 20,2010 broadcasting an advertisement

Hour Notice of Disbursements/Obligations for Electioneering Communications, September 21,

2010, at 3. AJS's advertisement said: "You've heard about how Joe Manchin supported the

Obama stimulus that wasted money on turtle tunnels, ant research, and cocaine for monkeys.

But that's not their only waste. Their stimulus wasted money on studying the atmosphere of

asked for jobs. What we got was waste. Really." The advertisement concluded by encouraging

voters to "tell Obama and Manchin not to stimulate us anymore." Exhibit B, track 9.

33. AJS also spent $72,100 on September 3,2010 broadcasting an advertisement

supporting Pat Toomey, then a candidate in the November 2,2010 general election for a U.S.

expenditures were $12,417,809. See AJS 2009 Form 990, Part IX. As a result, 72.2 percent of

AJS's total spending for that fiscal year was for independem expenditures and electioneering

communications.

COUNTI

35. FECA and FEC regulations define a "political committee" as "any committee,

club, association, or other group of persons which receives contributions aggregating in excess of

$1,000 during a calendar year or which makes expenditures aggregating in excess of $1,000

10

during a calendar year." 2 U.S.C. § 431(4)(A); 11 C.F.R. § 100.S(a). "Expenditures" for the

purpose of this definition only includes "funds used for communications that expressly advocate

the election or defeat of a clearly identified candidate." Buckley v. Valeo, 424 U.S. at 80.

36. AJS made expenditures aggregating in excess of$l,000 during 2010. AJS

reported to the FEC it spent $4,908,846 on independent expenditures for 2010, all of which were

^ expenditures for communications that expressly advocated the election or defeat of a candidate.

^ 37. In addition, only organizations whose "major purpose" is the nomination or

^ election of federal candidates can he "political committees." Buckley v. Valeo, 424 U.S. at 79.

The FEC conducts a fact-intensive case-by-case analysis of an organization to determine if its

major purpose is the nomination or election of federal candidates. Federal Election Commission,

Political Committee Status, Supplemental Explanation and Justification, 72 Fed. Reg. SS9S, 5601

(Feb. 7,2007) ("Supplemental E&J"); The Real Truth About Obama, Inc. v. FEC, 796 F. Supp.

2d 736,751 (E.D. Va. 2011). An organization can satisfy the major purpose doctrine through

sufficiently extensive spending on federal campaign activity. See FEC v. Massachusetts Citizens

for Life. Inc., 479 U.S. 238,262 (1986); Supplemental E&J, 72 Fed. Reg. at 5601.

38. An independent expenditure is, by definition, an expenditure expressly advocating

the election or defeat of a clearly identified candidate, 2 U.S.C. § 431(17), and an advertisement

that qualifies as an eleotioneering conununioation is the functional equivalent cf express

advocaey. Citizens United v. FEC, 130 S. Ct. 876, 889-890 (2010).

39. As demonstrated by its extensive spending on federal campaign activity, AJS's

major purpose in 2010 was the nomination or election of federal candidates. In the fiscal year

ending October 31,2010 - two days before the 2010 elections took place - AJS spent 72.2

percent of its expenditures on independent expenditures and electioneering communications.

11

8

40. FECA and EEC regulations require all political committees to register wiA the

PEC within 10 days of becoming a political conunittee. 2 U.S.C. § 433(a); 11 C.F.R. § 102.1(d).

41. AJS is not registered as a political committee with the EEC.

42. By failing to register as a political committee, AJS violated 2 U.S.C. § 433(a) and

11 C.F.R. § 102.1 (d).^

COUNT II

43. FECA and EEC regulations require all political committees tq file periodic reports

with the EEC. 2 U.S.C. § 434(a)(4); 11 C.F.R. § 104.1(a). These reports must, among other

things, identify all individuals who: contribute an aggregate of more than $200 in a year to the

political committee and the amount individual each contributed, identify all political committees

that made a contribution and the amount each committee contributed, detail outstanding debts

and obligations, and list all expenditures. 2 U.S.C. § 434(b); 11 C.F.R. § 104.3.

44. AJS has not filed any of these periodic reports with the EEC.

45. By failing to file periodic reports required of political committees, AJS violated 2

U.S.C. § 434(a)(4) and 11 C.F.R. § 104.1(a).

^ The EEC previously considered complaints alleging AJS violated the FECA by failing to register as a political committee and by failing to file periodic reports disclosing contributions and disbursements. See MURs 5694 and 5910. The General Counsel recommended finding reason to believe AJS violated the EEC and conducting a full investigation, but the Conunission failed to approve the recommendations on a 3-3 vote. Three commissioners asserted in a statement of reasons they voted against the recommendations because they concluded AJS had not made $1,000 in expenditures expressly advocating the eieetion or defeat of a candidate, and had not made the nomination or election of federal candidates its major purppse, because none of the advertisements nt issue qualified as express advocacy. By contrast, in the 20IQ elections AJS unquestionably engaged in express advocacy.
