Tue Jun 13 12:58:06 EDT 2017

Is it time to readdress our earlier discussion about creating a candidate recruitment and support committee?

Thoughts?

Wes, I think you are correct.  

But I don't think I see the LNC ever voting for a "top choice" race- I think that would cause a lot of resentments in states and be demotivating to other affiliates and candidates.

Brett, I have the same concerns that we do not have a process. But I also do not want to avoid supporting candidates until we do, particularly current office holders.

IIRC, the proponents of giving the Wicks campaign the money authorized by this committee indicated that we would have some parameters/guidelines/process for future giving as a result of the funds disbursed in short order for the social election. I have not seen such a plan or discussion for such a plan. 

Until such a time as we define those, I am unwilling to cosponsor any motion regarding or support giving funds to any candidate.

Perhaps someone should determine whether that level of contribution will result in the LNC having to file reports in Nebraska.

Colleagues:

I have seen that Sen. Laura Ebke in Nebraska has started fundraising.  I am seeking cosponors for the following motion:

Donate $5,000 to the Laura Ebke re-election campaign.

I was unable to find any FEC reason we cannot donate (and we've donated to state rep campaigns before).  Nebraska seems not to have a donation limit, even for out of state money, so we should be fine there.  I am not aware, therefore, of any legal issues, but please speak up if I have missed anything.
