The Federal Election Commission is down to 2 members. So its work is at a standstill

"The Federal Election Commission, an independent agency tasked with regulating campaign finance, has lost yet another member. But the FEC has actually been without a quorum at least four members for months, leaving the agency unable to do much of its work. Republican Trey Trainor told the Washington Examiner that he would be resigning as commissioner, effective Friday. Trainor did not reply to NPR's request for comment."

""He fired me without cause," Weintraub told NPR this week. "He fired me without precedent ... I was eligible to be replaced. So, I expected that was going to happen. What I did not expect was that I was just going to be fired and no one would be put in my place." And because no one has been appointed in her place, or Dickerson's, the commission which already had a vacancy when Trump entered office can't meet or vote on anything."

"The short answer is that the FEC hasn't been able to do any policy work for months, but some of the day-to-day functions continue. Weintraub who served on the FEC since 2002 and is now a senior fellow at End Citizens United, a political action committee working to reverse a U.S. Supreme Court decision that struck down some campaign finance limits said there is little to nothing commissioners can do without a quorum."

The Federal Election Commission has lost another commissioner as Republican Trey Trainor announced his resignation effective Friday. The commission has been without a quorum — fewer than four members — for months, leaving it unable to conduct policy work or vote on substantive matters. Three commissioners have departed during President Trump's second term: Trey Trainor, Allen Dickerson, and Democrat Ellen Weintraub, whose firing many view as improper. Weintraub said she was fired without cause or precedent and that no replacements were appointed. Without four votes, the FEC cannot issue penalties, start or conclude investigations, initiate audits, issue rules, or answer substantive questions, though some day-to-day functions continue.
