Case
#20780
Respondent
Xerox Corporation Political Action Committee
Complainant
Glen Morgan
Description
The complaint alleged that Xerox Corporate PAC may have violated RCW 42.17A.250 by failing to file an Out-of-State Committee Report (C-5 report) as required in accordance with RCW 42.17A.250, disclosing a $1,000 monetary contribution made to the 2016 Jay Inslee for Governor Campaign (Campaign).
On July 5, 2016, the Campaign timely filed a Monetary Contributions report (C-3 report) with the PDC disclosing the receipt of a $1,000 monetary contribution from Xerox Corporation PAC (Committee) on June 22, 2016.
While Xerox Corporation PAC was required to disclose the $1,000 contribution made to the Campaign in 2016 on a C-5 report, based on this information, the PDC has determined that the facts do warrant further investigation.
Pursuant to WAC 390-37-060(1)(d) PDC staff formally warned Xerox Corporation PAC concerning the importance of timely filing C-5 reports as required for a political committee registered with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) or in another state, in accordance with PDC laws and rules. The formal written warning includes staff’s expectation that Xerox Corporation PAC will timely C-5 reports in the future disclosing all contributions made to Washington State candidates and political committees registered with the PDC. The Commission will consider this formal written warning in deciding on further Commission action if there are future violations of PDC laws or rules.
Based on this information, the PDC has dismissed the complaint in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
