    1998. Requests to testify must be received on or before April 6, 1998. 
    Persons requesting to testify also must submit written comments by 
    April 6, 1998, if they have not previously filed written comments on 
    the proposed rules.
    
    ADDRESSES: Requests to testify, and any accompanying comments, should 
    be addressed to Ms. Susan E. Propper, Assistant General Counsel, and 
    must be submitted in either written or electronic form. Written 
    requests and comments should be sent to the Commission's postal service

    20463. Faxed requests and comments should be sent to (202) 219-3923. 
    Commenters submitting faxed material also should submit a printed copy

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 22, 1997, the Commission 
    published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (``NPRM'') seeking comments 
    on proposed revisions to its rules defining who qualifies as a 
    ``member'' of a membership association. 62 FR 66832. The NPRM announced 
    that a hearing would be held on the proposed rules if the Commission 
    received sufficient requests to testify.
        To date the Commission has received several requests to testify at 
    such a hearing. After considering these requests and the other comments 
    received to date in response to the NPRM, the Commission believes a 
    public hearing would be helpful in considering the issues raised in 
    this rulemaking. The hearing will be held on 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, 
    April 29, 1998.
    
        Dated: February 27, 1998
    Joan D. Aikens,
    Chairman, Federal Election Commission.
