REUTERS\/Jonathan Ernst<\/figcaption><p>WASHINGTON (Reuters) &#8211; President Joe Biden intends to nominate election law attorney Dara Lindenbaum to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), the regulatory agency tasked with enforcing U.S. campaign finance law, the White House said on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Lindenbaum, a Democrat, is a lawyer in Washington, D.C., where she has counseled clients on complying with state and federal campaign finance laws and represented them before the FEC.<\/p>\n<p>Her nomination as one of the FEC\u2019s six commissioners comes after Biden and congressional Democrats failed to pass voting rights legislation amid Republican opposition. The legislation would have strengthened the FEC\u2019s enforcement powers.<\/p>\n<p>By law, no more than three FEC commissioners can represent the same political party, and at least four votes are required for any official FEC action. Commissioners serve in staggered six-year terms.<\/p>\n<p>Lindenbaum replaces Vice Chair Steven Walther, an independent who was generally seen as aligned with the FEC\u2019s two Democrats. The other three commissioners are Republicans, meaning Lindenbaum\u2019s appointment maintains the FEC\u2019s 3-3 split.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-election\/biden-nominates-democrat-lindenbaum-for-federal-election-commission-idUSKBN2JV24M\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. President Joe Biden holds a meeting with his Infrastructure Implementation Task Force in the Cabinet Room at the White House in Washington, U.S., January [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":124732,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
