“Undisclosed FEC Report on Crossroads Ordered Released”

Bloomberg BNA:

A staff report that the Federal Election Commission has fought to keep under wraps in an enforcement case involving the conservative nonprofit Crossroads GPS could be disclosed soon following a new order by a federal judge (Public Citizen v. FEC, D.D.C., No. 14-cv-148,order, 12/4/15).
Judge Richard Leon of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Dec. 4 ordered the release of the FEC general counsel’s report analyzing charges that Crossroads GPS violated campaign finance laws. The nonprofit group organized under tax code Section 501(c)(4) spent millions of dollars raised from undisclosed sources to help Republicans in congressional election races in 2010 and later years.
The FEC report that the judge ordered released was completed in 2011, but has never been made public.
