A Message from FEC
Chairman Lee Ann Elliott
   This year will be a busy Presiden-
tial election year but the FEC will
continue to focus on its primary goal
of service to the regulated community.
   We urge you to take advantage of
the many services we offer. If you
have a question about 'any phase of
the Act or our regulations, please call
an information specialist on our toll
line: 800/424-9530. Your question
will receive prompt attention.
   If you file with us, contact your
analyst in the Reports Analysis Div-
ision. He or she can help you with
reporting problems. This is particu-
larly important if you receive a
Request For Additional Information.
   FEC publications on many phases
of the election process are available
to you by mail or by Flashfax. Call
Flashfax at 202/501-3413 to request
the publication you want and it will
be faxed to you quickly; this service
operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
   A high priority for the FEC in 1996
is preparing for electronic filing. We
have commissioned a study to help us
plan for a comprehensive program.
We are moving ahead on our internal
computer capabilities and hope to be
fully computerized shortly. We are
making every effort to be more
efficient and user friendly.
   We welcome your comments and
suggestions.
