Forbes.com offers this report, which begins:

It’s an executive status symbol: an assistant who schleps your dry cleaning, buys your gifts and plans your parties. Just make sure they’re not political fundraising parties.
That’s the lesson from two little-noticed settlements last month with the Federal Election Commission. Harrah’s Entertainment and Mirage Casino Resorts agreed to pay a combined $93,000 in fines because an executive at each had asked an assistant to help collect contributions and coordinate invitations and catering for political fundraisers aiding Republican senatorial hopeful William Gormley of New Jersey. The events raised a total of $65,000. Such activity, the FEC concluded, violates a regulation prohibiting the “use of corporate resources to facilitate contributions.”

The MUR in question is here. Thanks to a reader for passing this along, who writes in response to this Bush-Cheney FAQ (see here): “The correct answer to the Bush-Cheney ’04 FAQ “Can I use my executive assistant to help with my fundraising activities?” is ‘Only if you pay your company in advance for the fair market value of the time your executive assistant spends assisting you in your fundraising activities.’ 11 C.F.R. 114.2(f)(2)(i)(A). How many Pioneers/Rangers/Mavericks do you think did that?” Thanks for writing!
