Eight reform organizations express “grave concern about the dysfunctional Federal Election Commission"

From a Democracy 21 article, which includes a letter, but doesn't offer reader commenting:
"In a letter sent to President Barack Obama today, eight reform organizations expressed “our grave concern about the dysfunctional Federal Election Commission which is spectacularly failing to meet its statutory responsibilities to administer and enforce the nation’s campaign finance laws.”
The reform organizations included Americans for Campaign Reform, Campaign Legal Center, Common Cause, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), Democracy 21, League of Women Voters, Public Citizen and U.S. PIRG."
This is the "high church" group of government reform organizations in Washington, DC, which sends letters and publishes accompanying press releases for the occasional urgent problem.
