Crossroads Grassroots Policy Strategies (501(c)(4))
Findings that rest on exhibits naming this entity
- POL-5.10: The D.C. Circuit held on 21 August 2020 that 11 CFR 109.10(e)(1)(vi), which limited disclosure of donors to independent expenditures to donations earmarked for a specific expenditure, conflicts with the statute. In Van Hollen v. FEC the district court held 11 CFR 104.20(c)(9), a purpose-based limit on electioneering-communication donor disclosure, contrary to the statute in 2012 and 2014, and the D.C. Circuit reversed on 18 September 2012 and 21 January 2016 and upheld the regulation.
- POL-5.11: The FEC ended enforcement matters against groups on both sides without finding violations. It split 3 to 3 in MUR 6396 and MUR 6696 (Crossroads GPS) and MUR 6589 (American Action Network); in MUR 7904 (Wyss, Berger Action Fund, Wyss Foundation, New Venture Fund and Sixteen Thirty Fund) it voted 6 to 0 to dismiss the political-committee allegations and split 3 to 3 and 2 to 4 on the foreign-national and name-of-another allegations.
