RNC (Cao) v. FEC: FEC's Opposition to the petition for certiorari

FEC's opposition to the petition for certiorari. The question presented in the brief is whether the court of appeals correctly concluded that the limits on coordinated expenditures by a political party in the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, 2 U.S.C. 431 et seq., can constitutionally be applied to communications that a party coordinates with its candidates and then adopts as its “own speech.”
