Ford open to restructuring FEC as Hays seeks abolition
President Ford proposes reform of the Federal Election Commission with presidentially appointed members, while Rep Wayne Hays plans to transfer FEC funding powers to the comptroller general to allow time for law revision. Court ruling ends most FEC powers by February 29. Ford will consider leaders’ views and send legislation mid month. An identical Senate bill would keep funds flowing through April 30. The FEC also weighs if White House staff time on politics counts toward campaign limits as Morton advisory opinion motion stalls.
