FEC expected to rule Thursday on Robin Kelly fund-raising role

Ashlee Rezin Garcia/Sun-Times file The newly minted chair of the Democratic Party of Illinois won’t be able to personally raise money for state races or have a hand in picking members of a committee tasked with doing so, if members of the Federal Election Commission uphold language in a draft opinion they’re expected to discuss Thursday. In that draft released last week, members of the commission concluded that while a special committee may raise funds for the party’s non-federal campaign fund, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly who took over as chair in March from embattled, longtime party chief Mike Madigan can’t be involved in that process.

Legal opinion contends U S Rep Kelly is ineligible to lead state Democratic Party — her camp disagrees

Ashlee Rezin Garcia; Pat Nabong /Sun-Times file. The race for the reins of the Democratic Party of Illinois heated up on Monday with the release of a legal opinion contending that U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly may be ineligible to serve in the top state party post. The congresswoman’s team called that “suggestion” both “false and offensive.” Kelly released her own legal opinion conceding that, as a federal elected official, she would be barred from raising or spending money for state or local campaigns, something the Matteson Democrat suggested would empower other party leaders. “I will not only make sure we follow the letter of the law, but have an inclusive, team-approach to all decisions that involve the party’s finances,” she said in a statement.
