DAVIS , TREASURER MARCO RUBIO FOR US SENATE 2030 SOUTH DOUGLAS ROAD SUITE 105 CORAL GABLES, FL 33134 Response Due Date 06/22/2010 IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: C00458844 Dear Treasurer: This letter constitutes formal written notification that Marco Rubio for US Senate has filed reports of receipts and disbursements with the Commission and appears to have received a transfer of funds from an unauthorized joint-fundraiser, US Senate Victory Committee. In order for the principal campaign committee to receive transfers from a joint-fundraiser, the candidate must file a written statement authorizing these activities. This designation may be made by letter or by amending the Statement of Organization (FEC FORM 1) to show the affiliation of the joint-fundraising committee and the separate account used for the proceeds. (11 CFR § 102.2) All contributions transferred to the principal campaign committee must be permissible under the Act. Please refer to 11 CFR § 102.17 for information on the proper reporting of joint-fundraising committees. Please amend your Statement of Organization to disclose the omitted information. A copy of FEC FORM 1 can be downloaded from the FEC website at http://www.fec.gov, or requested through the FEC Faxline at (202) 501-3413. Electronic filers must file amendments (to include statements, designations and reports) in an electronic format and must submit an amended report in its entirety, rather than just those portions of the report that are being amended. **Please note you will not receive an additional notice from the Commission on this matter.** Adequate responses received on or before this date will be taken into consideration in determining whether audit action will be initiated. **Requests for extensions of time in which to respond will not be considered.** Failure to provide an adequate response by this date may result in an audit of the committee. Failure to comply with the provisions of the Act may also result in an enforcement action against the committee. Any response submitted by your committee will be placed on the public record and will be considered by the Commission prior to taking enforcement action. If you should have any questions regarding this matter or wish to verify the adequacy of your response, please contact me on our toll-free number (800) 424-9530 (at the prompt press 5 to reach the Reports Analysis Division) or my local number (202) 694-1165.
