Records Office.
DATES: Statements in support of or in opposition to the petition must
be filed on or before April 29, 1994.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Rulemaking Petition: Notice of Availability
The Petitioner has requested that the Commission ``repeal its rules
providing for the use of privately financed Compliance Funds in
Presidential campaigns.'' Specifically, the Petitioner seeks repeal of
11 CFR 100.8(b)(15)(last two sentences), 106.2(b)(2)(iii)(last
sentence), 9002.11(b)(5), 9003.3(a), and 9035.1(c)(1). The petition
argues that use of these funds permits presidential candidates to evade
the contribution and expenditure limitations imposed by the
Presidential Election Campaign Fund Act at 26 U.S.C. 9003(b) and
9035(a).
Copies of the Petition for Rulemaking are available for public
inspection at the Commission's Public Records Office, 999 E Street,
NW., Washington, DC 20463, Monday through Friday between the hours of 9
a.m. and 5 p.m. Statements in support of or in opposition to the
Petition for Rulemaking must be submitted in writing by April 29, 1994.
Consideration of the merits of the petition will be deferred until
the close of the public comment period.
Dated: March 25, 1994.
Trevor Potter,
Chairman.
