Message From the Chairman
   Nineteen ninety-eight promises to be a year of change and challenge for
the FEC.
   We can look forward to an election year with an ever-increasing workload
as we implement new and innovative ways to manage this increase on a
limited budget. Many of these innovations are already in place. For example,
committees may now file their reports electronically. Along with the 800
number (800/424-9530), the Commission also has an internet web site (http://
www.fec.gov). Additionally, publications and other election law materials
are available through FEC Faxline (202/501-3413).
   All of this advance in technology is to help answer your questions and
satisfy your requests quickly and easily. We welcome your comments and
suggestions and pledge our continuing efforts to help the regulated commu-
nity successfully comply with the Federal Election Campaign Act and
participate fully in the political process.
   While I was elected Chairman for this year, it is only in a caretaker
capacity. There will be two new Commissioners-and a new Chairman-
possibly in office by late February or early March. However, I am very
pleased to be able to once more serve as Chairman during this important
election cycle.
   Finally, a very special expression of gratitude to our hardworking staff,
many of whom I have had the great pleasure to work with since 1975.
Without these committed, loyal and dedicated individuals, the FEC would
not be the responsive, informative agency it is today. I am especially grateful
for their commitment to our mission.
