IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: C00577130

REFERENCE: JULY QUARTERLY REPORT (04/01/2015 - 06/30/2015)

Dear Treasurer:
Response Due Date
05/04/2016
This letter is prompted by the Commission's preliminary review of the report referenced
above. This notice requests information essential to full public disclosure of your
federal election campaign finances. Failure to adequately respond by the response
date noted above could result in an audit or enforcement action. Additional
information is needed for the following 1 item(s):
- Line 17(a)(i) of the Detailed Summary Page of your report discloses a total of
$3,279,505.25 in contributions from individuals. The sum of the entries
itemized on Schedule A-P, however, indicates the total to be $13,745,417.64.
These amounts should be the same. Please amend your report to clarify the
discrepancy. (11 CFR § 104.3(a) and (b))
Please note, you will not receive an additional notice from the Commission on this
matter. Adequate responses must be received by the Commission on or before the due
date noted above to be taken into consideration in determining whether audit action will
be initiated. Failure to comply with the provisions of the Act may also result in an
enforcement action against the committee. Any response submitted by your committee
will be placed on the public record and will be considered by the Commission prior to
taking enforcement action. Requests for extensions of time in which to respond will
not be considered.
Electronic filers must file amendments (to include statements, designations and reports)
in an electronic format and must submit an amended report in its entirety, rather than
just those portions of the report that are being amended. If you should have any
questions regarding this matter or wish to verify the adequacy of your response, please
contact me on our toll-free number (800) 424-9530 (at the prompt press 5 to reach the
Reports Analysis Division) or my local number (202) 694-1166.
