WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence filed complaints with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday, Nov. 1, asking the FEC to investigate whether the National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America are in violation of Federal Election Commission regulations and Federal Election Campaign Laws.
The complaint about the National Rifle Association asks the FEC to determine whether the NRA has engaged in prohibited activities, including electioneering on behalf of federal candidates, by expressly advocating the election or defeat of federal candidates in communications to the general public, beyond its membership, through its Web activities.
The complaint against the Gun Owners of America (GOA) is similar.
