The Online Coalition is authoring a letter to the Federal Election Commission in response to the FEC's proposed rulemaking that would impact blogging and other Internet communications. Today is the final day to join in support of the comments.

Before signing, it's a good idea to review the positions advocated by the group. For example, the Online Coalition does not support a disclaimer requirement for bloggers who receive direct compensation from election campaigns. Other issues include proposed definitions of what constitutes a "public communication," as well as political affiliation/sponsorship disclaimers in unsolicited email.
