FEC Chairman Sean Cooksey makes a compelling case you rarely hear from the federal government: don’t give us more regulatory power out of thin air!

Being a parent comes with thousands of little joys. One of them is re-reading the best books of your childhood to your own kids with new eyes. Dr. Seuss nailed this. I would actually really enjoy these gifts!

Democratic House Members are now pressuring the FEC to issue new rules to censor Elon Musk's new Grok-2 AI art generator before the election. Let me be clear: the First Amendment is not optional. I'll never support shutting down political speech online, including your memes.

A reminder for everyone running issue ads out there that the electioneering-communications window for the general election starts this Friday (September 6). Missing or late EC reports are a silly way to end up in The FEC enforcement! fec.gov/updates/electi…

The Sixth Circuit just issued its ruling in favor of the The FEC and upholding the limits on party-coordinated spending. I think Supreme Court review is inevitable.
