FACTS
5. Principles First, Inc. (“Principles First”) also known as Principles First PAC, is an
independent expenditure-only political action committee (i.e., a “super PAC”) that was active
in Montana’s U.S. Senate primary election, which was held on June 5, 2018. 1
6. Matt Rosendale is a Republican candidate seeking election to the U.S. Senate from
Montana. 2
7. On May 22, 2018, Principles First began running $26,625 in broadcast ads on three Montana
Commission (“FCC”) records. 3 The political ad file accompanying one of the contracts
described the ad as relating to the “U.S. House race for Montana primary.” 4
8. A copy of the ad posted to the Advertising Analytics platform AdMo shows that the ad
expressly advocated against Rosendale’s election by urging viewers: “On June 5th Vote NO!
on Maryland Matt Rosendale.” 5 The ad concluded with the message: “Principles First is

10. Also on May 23, 2018, an Arizona-based attorney for Principles First sent a letter to the
and-desist letter from Matt Rosendale for Montana. 9 The Principles First letter argued that its
ad describing Rosendale as “Maryland Matt” did not contain a factually inaccurate voiceover
message; rather, the letter insisted “[i]t is clear that the advertisement in question is not
misleading, it is not false, and it does not materially misrepresent any facts surrounding this
issue.” 10
11. On May 25, 2018, MTN News reported that Principles First, a “little-known group,” had
purchased $50,000 in airtime for a TV ad attacking U.S. Senate candidate Matt Rosendale. 11

Rosendale’s campaign denounced the ad as “blatantly false,” saying that a Maryland title
company has said, in writing, that the 2015 land-sale document indicating Rosendale is a
resident of Maryland is a mistake that it made.
Principles First PAC is not registered with the Federal Election Commission and a media
buyer for the group did not return a telephone message from MTN. 12
12. On May 30, 2018, Principles First spent an additional $22,725 on broadcast ads on the same
three Montana stations, KPAX-TV/KAJ-TV, KECI, and KTMF, according to FCC records. 13

CAUSES OF ACTION
22. Published reports and FCC records indicate that Principles First spent at least $49,350 to air
at least 127 broadcast advertisements in Montana that expressly advocated against the
election of Montana Congressional candidate Matt Rosendale (“Vote NO! on Maryland Matt
Rosendale”) and did so within 20 days before the June 5th election. 20 These advertisements

Exhibit D at 1-4. On the attached “Agreement Form for Non-Candidate/Issue Advertisements,” the “No”
box is selected in response to the question, “Does the programming (in whole or in part) communicate ‘a message
relating to any political matter of national importance?’” Id. at 6. However, the preceding contract displays the
“Political Issue” designation in the “Product” field, id. at 1, 2, and complainants are not aware of any evidence to
suggest Principles First was running ads during that period that were not tied to the Montana U.S. Senate race.

Exhibit E at 1-3. A previous version of this filing, dated three days earlier, included an attached agreement
form answering “No” to the question, “Does the programming (in whole or in part) communicate ‘a message

omitted that attachment. The exhibits cited in this complaint reflect the most recent versions of the records on file

Note: Because the FCC requires that the political file contain the actual time the rate for
spots “communicating a political matter of national importance” air, that information
should be included in the file as soon as possible. If that information is only generated
monthly, the file should include the name of a contact person who can provide the times

Note: Because the FCC requires that the political file contain the actual time the rate for
spots "communicating a political matter of national importance" air, that information
should be included in the file as soon as possible. If that information is only generated
monthly, the file should include the name of a contact person who can provide the times
that and rates for specific spots aired. The FCC's online political files include a folder for
"Terms and Disclosures." NAB suggests that, for stations subject to the online public file
rule, the names of contact person(s) be placed in that folder.

Note: Because the FCC requires that the political file contain the actual time the rate for
spots "communicating a political matter of national importance" air, that information
should be included in the file as soon as possible. If that information is only generated
monthly, the file should include the name of a contact person who can provide the times
that and rates for specific spots aired. The FCC's online political files include a folder for
"Terms and Disclosures." NAB suggests that, for stations subject to the online public file
rule, the names of contact person(s) be placed in that folder.
