Fund raisers exploit loopholes before new campaign act takes effect
The piece reports that fund raisers are guiding donors to anonymized gifts ahead of the April 7 start of the Federal Election Campaign Act 1971, with figures like Maurice Stans urging large contributions to Republican front committees. It notes disclosure delays, plans for $3,000 to $4,800 gifts, and efforts to evade old reporting rules while five major Democratic contenders pledge full disclosure.
