Interest of Amicus Curiae
The State of New York submits this brief amicus curiae,
in support of Respondents, urging affirmance in order to
advance the State’s historic interest in enhancing the vital-
ity of the charitable sector, which depends on the full and
free exercise of the First Amendment rights at issue in
this case.
New York’s interest in the well-being of charitable en-
terprises is strong. It has roots deep in Anglo-American
law that, since the time of Elizabethan England, has viewed
the success of charitable endeavors as an important and
legitimate concern of the State.* This interest is manifest
in the broad supervisory powers and extensive regulatory
duties granted New York State’s Attorney General. In
New York, the Attorney General oversees the proper ad-
ministration of charitable property and takes an active
role in cy pres proceedings, N.Y. Est. Powers & Trusts Law
§§ 8-1.4, 8-1.1 (McKinney 1981). He is involved at critical
junctures in the operations of charitable not-for-profit cor-
porations through provisions of state law requiring notice
to the Attorney General prior to court approval of incor-
porations, dissolutions, mergers, and transfers of property.
N.Y. Not-for-Profit Corp. Law §§ 404(a), 511(b), 907(b)
and 1003(b)(2) (McKinney 1970 and Supp. 1983-84). The
Attorney General has the power to sue to remedy mis-
management and malfeasance on the part of directors and
officers of charitable corporations. N.Y. Not-for-Profit

Corp. Law §§ 112, 720 (McKinney 1970 and Supp. 1983-84).
Additionally, the Attorney General enforces laws govern-
ing charitable solicitations, in conjunction with the Secre-
tary of State, whose Office of Charities Registration over-
sees the activities of public charities through registration
and reporting requirements. N.Y. Exec. Law $175 (Me-
Kinney 1982).
New York’s experiences protecting the public’s interest
in the voluntary sector have shown that the charitable
sector has historically been characterized by vigorous, often
competing voices trying to convince the public that their
charitable cause is worthwhile and deserving of public sup-
port. The vitality of the philanthropic community, we are
convincea, depends on the free exchange of ideas, subject
of course to necessary strictures against fraud and misrep-
resentation.
In addition to this general interest in a diverse and
financially sound philanthropic sector, New York State has
an interest in encouraging charities to raise funds effec-
tively, which inevitably depends on the widespread com-
munication of ideas. To further this interest, and to help
in keeping the cost of raising charitable dollars low, the
State Attorney General’s Office monitors fund-raising prac-
tices and when necessary brings suit to enjoin fraudulent
fund-raising practices.* Thus, New York has an interest
in facilitating charitable solicitations in the workplace, be-
cause experience shows that such solicitations are effective

means of communicating information and raising money
for causes that often benefit New Yorkers. New York also
has a proper concern with protecting the exercise of First
Amendment rights by those interested in charitable insti-
tutions because such rights are necessary for successful
campaigns among government workers.
Statement
New York adopts Respondents’ statement of the case.
Summary of Argument
The United States Government has placed severe re-
strictions on the First Amendment rights of a small group
of charities, known as legal defense funds, by excluding
them from the Combined Federal Campaign (‘‘CFC’’).
CFC is the sole vehicle for soliciting federal employees in
the workplace.
Restrictions on the right to exercise First Amendment
freedoms on government property are governed by the
three-tier test described by this Court in Perry Education
Association v. Perry Local Educators’ Association, 460
U.S. 37 (1983). According to Perry, government regula-
tion of speech in public forums and limited public forums
must satisfy higher standards than regulations imposed
on speech in nonpublic forums, but even restrictions ap-
plied to nonpublic government forums must be reasonable.
The Government restrictions challenged in this case are
not reasonable.
New York can speak with considerable authority to sev-
eral of the Government’s arguments. First, New York

conducts its own campaign for charitable donations among
state employees but does not distinguish between legal de-
fense funds and other charities concerned with health and
welfare. New York State has not found such a distinction
necessary to operate a successful campaign or to avoid dis-
ruption of work. Second, New York’s experience, exercis-
ing its plenary power protecting charitable interests, makes
clear that a campaign such as CFC is a singularly effective
means of reaching potential donors. This experience also
makes clear that the criteria used to exclude legal defense
funds in no way assure, as the Government claims, that
money collected by CFC will be applied directly to help
people in need. The purported basis for these exclusionary
critcria is unsound ond the restriction therefore unrea-
sonable.
ARGUMENT
By excluding legal defense funds from the only
campaign for charitable dollars permitted in the fed-
eral workplace, the Government has placed substantial
and unreasonable restrictions on First Amendment
rights.
A. The Government May Not Place Unreasonable
Restrictions on Charities’ Participation in CFC.
The Government has excluded legal defense funds, a
small number of the many charities that address problems
of human health and welfare, from the only charitable funds
drive allowed in the federal workplace. This limitation
raises substantial First Amendment problems and compels
the Government to justify its actions. The Government,
however, has not met and cannot meet its burden of demon-
strating the reasonableness of the exclusion.
5
This Court has placed charitable solicitations squarely
under the protection of the First Amendment. Recognizing
that solicitation is inevitably dependent on speech, this
Court has said, ‘‘[SJolicitation is characteristically inter-
twined with informative and perhaps persuasive speech
seeking support for particular causes or for particular
views on economic, political or social issues. . . .’’ Village
of Schaumburg v. Citizens for a Better Environment, 444
U.S. 620, 632 (1980). In Village of Schaumburg, the Court
struck down government-imposed rules that restricted
charitable solicitations, on the grounc. that such restric-
tions violated the First Amendment. Last Term, the Court
again considered the nature of free speech rights inherent
in solicitetions for charities, again struck down government
rules that impinged solicitations, and affirmed that speech
and charitable solicitations are indeed ‘‘intertwined.’’
Secretary of State v. Munson, —— USS. , 104 S. Ct.
2839 (1984).
When solicitations take place on government property,
restrictions on the exercise of these First Amendment free-
doms are governed by the standards set forth in Perry
Educational Association v. Perry Local Educators’ Assoct-
ation, 460 U.S. 37 (1983). This Court determined that all
regulations of speech on public property, at the very least,
must be ‘‘reasonable’’ even when a nonpublic forum is at
issue. A higher standard, allowing only time, place and
manner to be regulated unless a compelling state interest
justifies further restriction which is narrowly drawn to
achieve its particular aim, applies to public forums and
limited public forums. This higher standard, we submit,
must apply to charitable solicitations in a public setting
among government employees. Clearly the restrictions at
issue in this case cannot survive such exacting scrutiny.
However, judged even by the !ess stringent standard
applied to nonpublic forums, the Government’s exclusion
of legal defense funds cannot pass constitutional muster.
‘*The touchstone for evaluating’’ distinctions made among
potential speakers in a nonpublic forum is ‘‘whether they
are reasonable in light of the purpose which the forum at
issue serves.’’ 460 U.S. at 49. Thus, a proffered justifica-
tion for a distinction that excludes groups from a nonpubli«
forum must relate to the nature of the forum itself, and
the reasonableness of a distinction is judged not by whether
it is reasonable in the abstract but by whether it is reason-
able as applied to a particular forum.
The Government has presented a multitude of argu-
ments for the exclusion of legal defense funds from CFC
and in defense of the reasonableness of its reculation of
Respondents’ speech, many of which bear no relationship
to the nature of either CFC or the federal workplace. This
brief discusses the weaknesses of only four of these various
justifications. However, as Respondents’ Brief amply
demonstrates, none of the other arguments advanced by the
Government withstands analysis.
B. New York State, Which Conducts Its Own
Campaign for Charitable Dollars in the
Workplace, Finds no Support in Its Own
Experiences for the Government’s Claim
that the Exclusion of Legal Defense
Funds Is Reasonable.
New York State conducts a campaign among state em-
ployees for charitable contributions which is very similar
to CFC. However, in New York’s campaign, no distinction
has been made between ‘‘traditional’’ health and welfare
7
organizations and other charities. It is this purported dis-
tinction on which the Government bases its exclusion of
legal defense funds from CFC.
The experiences of New York Siate’s campaign effec-
tively refute two key arguments the Government uses tv
justify the reasonableness and therefore the constitution-
ality of its exclusion. It claims its distinction between
‘*traditional’’ charities and others is reasonable because
it is so widely made and commonly accepted, and because
the participation of legal defeuse funds threatens the suc-
cess of the campaign and disrup's government work. New
York State, however, has condu*ted its campaign without
excluding legal defense funds, and this has not damaged
the campaign or disrupted the work of running the State.
The Government’s purported distinction is in reality little
more than a ruse.
1. The Distinction the Government Makes Between
“Traditional” Charities and Others Is
Neither Common nor Obvious.
In the CFC eligibility criteria, the distinction is made
between what the Government repeatedly calls ‘‘tradi-
tional’’ health and welfare organizations that ‘‘render
services directly to the needy or the sick’’ and all other
charitable organizations. Petitioner’s Brief (‘‘Pet. Br.’’)
at 32. This distinction cannot be found in the Executive
Order limiting eligibility, which instead relies on an ex-
plicit and lengthy exclusion of charities that use litigation
to influence public policy, Exec. Order No. 12,404, 3 CFR
§151(1)(b). Nonetheless, the Government asserts, the dis-
tinction is generally if not universally understood, ‘‘not at
all illogical or difficult to grasp,’’ even ‘‘natural.’’ Pet. Br.
at 31. Acceptance of this distinction, the Government
claims, is long-standing. Pet. Br. at 32. Yet this distine-
tion is neither as common nor as obvious as the Govern-
ment would lead this Court to believe.
New York State, for one, has never distinguished ‘‘tra-
ditional’’ charities from others. New York’s statute au-
thorizing payroll deductions for charity drives permits de-
ductions on behalf of organizations with ‘‘health, welfare,
and recreational purposes.’’ N.Y. State Fin. Law § 201(1)
(McKinney 1974). The only limitation contained in the
implementing regulations is that participating organiza-
tions be ‘‘ voluntary non-profit charitable organizations ren-
dering services in aid of human health, welfare, and rec-
reation.’” NYCRR § 335.1. No mentiem is made of ‘‘tra-
ditional’’ charities, causes or organizations; covered or-
ganizations are not required to provide direct services.
New York law simply defines a broad range of organiza-
tions that may participate in a campaign and therefore
benefit from access to government employees in their place
of work. This definition is expansive enough to include
groups excluded from CFC, such as Respondents, some of
whom do participate in New York’s campaign. See Section
A2 infra. See also materials from Erie County and New
York City’s SEFA campaigns, attached as Exhibits A and
B. The Government’s implied assertion that New York
does make this distinction between ‘‘traditional’’ charities
and other charities and does exclude groups like Respond-
ents is simply mistaken.*
* The Governmeni asserts that “most state and local govern-
ments” make this distinction and cites a New York case. However,
the cited case, /nternational Service Agencies v. Uniied Way of
einai (footnote continued on next page)
' q
The two non-New York cases the Government cites for
the proposition that ‘‘most state and local governments’”’
make the distinction between ‘‘traditional’’ charities and
others do not support its claim that the distinction is com-
mon, even among government entities. In Black United
Fund of New Jersey, Inc. v. Kean, 593 ¥. Supp. 1567 (D.N.J.
1984), the district court heard a challenge to a state statute
that limited charitable campaigns among state workers to
three named charities, not to some more vaguely described
group of ‘‘traditional’’ charities. In fact, the court struck
down the New Jersey statute as unconstitutional. The
Charlotte, North Carolina practice, mentioned only in pass-
ing in City of Charlotte v. Local 660, International Ass’n
of Firefighters, 426 U.S. 283, 287 n. 3 (1976), a case about
payroll deductions for union dues, did not even address the
question of eligibility to a charitable campaign but simply
described the city’s policy, which, like the New Jersey
statute found unconstitutional, permitted payroll deduc-
tions to a named charity, not ‘‘traditional’’ charities.
If the purported Government distinction is indeed a
clear, historic one, one wonders why the Government never
attempted to rely upon it in its regulations. In its previous
attempts to exclude legal defense funds, the Government
wrote eligibility criteria that were declared unconstitu-
tionally vague. NAACP Legal Defense and Education
Fund v. Campbell, 504 F. Supp. 1365 (D.D.C. 1981). The
Government now has attempted a long description of eligi-
New York State, 108 Misc. 2d 305 (Sup. Ct. Albany Co. 1981),
does not address the distinction at all. In /nternational Service
Agencies v. United Way of New York State, the court simply ruled
that New York’s antitrust law does not reach charitable organizations.
10
bility that only succeeds in drawing a line that keeps Re-
spondents out of CFC by explicitly excluding litigation
groups. See Exec. Order, 3 CFR §151(1)(b). Further-
more, the Government itself has had difficulty in apply-
ing the distinction it argues is intuitively obvious. It ad-
mits that it may have made a ‘‘misapplication of the cri-
terion’’ by admitting the United States Olympic Committee
to CFC. Pet. Br. at 49. Thus, the Government’s own diffi-
culties in defining and applying this distinction between
‘*traditional’’ charities and others effectively argues
against the claim that the distinction is eminently plain
and therefore reasonable.
2. The State of New York Has Included Diverse
Groups in Its Workplace Campaign, Including
Legal Defense Funds, Without Damage to
the Campaign or Disruption of Work.
The Government claims that excluding legal defense
funds is necessary to avoid disruptions of work and to
maintain a consensus on participation that assures the suc-
cess of the campaign. Neither of these claims finds support
in the record.* Significantly, New York State, in conduct-
ing a charitable drive among government workers that is
very similar to CFC, has found no need to impose the re-
strictions the Government claims are essential. It has in-
cluded legal defense funds among the diverse groups that
solicit state employees without encountering the difficulties
the Government claims attend their participation.
* The Court of Appeals found no evidence in the record “to sup-
port the suggestion that work was dis when LDF’s participated
in CFC... .” Pet. App. at 32a n. 16. Revenues from CFC con-
tinued to grow. See Respondents’ Brief, Section E(1)(a), showing
the increases in CFC income.
ll
New York State’s combined campaign for charitable
contributions operates in much the same way CFC does.
Like CFC, New York’s State Employees Federated Appeal
(‘‘SEFA’’) allows solicitations for charities in the gov-
ernment offices during a single combined campaign and dur-
ing one period of the year.* Like CFC, SEFA relies on
government employees working on government time and
uses payroll deduction mechanisms to keep the costs of the
campaign low. And, like CFC, SEFA permits government
workers to designate organizations to receive their dona-
tions from a list of approved agencies. The history of the
two campaigns is also similar. SEF A and CFC both began
about two decades ago and, in recent years, the number and
type of participating agencies have grown for both, first to
include the National Health Agencies and International
Service Agencies and later to include a myriad of other
charities.**
Unlike the federal government, however, the State of
New York has found no need to limit participation in its
charitable campaign. Instead, by consciously promoting
pluralism, New York has succeeded in creating a charitable
campaign that welcomes diverse groups.
The number and types of organizations participating in
SEFA is impressive. In Erie County, for example, over one
hundred agencies now take part in SEF A, including the
Black United Fund of New York, the Salvation Army, the
* New York’s SEFA campaign is governed by N.Y. Fin. Law
§ 201 (McKinney 1974) and NYCRR Part 335. CFC’s operations
are described in Respondents’ Statement of the Case.
** For a fuller history of the SEFA program, see, ie., Memo-
randum to the Governor from the Attorney General on Assembly
Int. 4288, Pr. 5580, March 20, 1964.
Ireland Fund, the Jewish Federation of Greater Buffalo,
Planned Parenthood-World Population, and the United
States Committee for UNICEF.* In New York City, the
number approaches five hundred, and the participants in-
clude Bronx Legal Services, African Medical and Research
Foundation, Black Women’s Development Collective, Uni-
tarian Universalist Service Committee, St. Patrick’s Home
for the Aged and Infirm, Jewish Guild for the Blind, and
the Committee for Abortion Rights and Against Steriliza-
tion Abuse.**
The legal defense funds excluded from CFC because, the
Government claims, they threaten the consensus that makes
the campaign work can and do participate in SEFA. Two
of the Respondents in this case, the NAACP Legal Defense
and Education Fund, Inc. and the Puerto Rican Legal De-
fense and Education Fund, Inc., solicit through SEF A, as
do groups such as the Native American Rights Fund and
Community Action for Legal Services. Their participation
has created neither difficulty nor controversy. Not sur-
prisingly, the work of New York’s government has not been
disturbed by the inclusion of legal defense funds. This
belies the Government’s fanciful claim that such groups’
participation inevitably arouses disruptive disputes and
controversy. They have solicited through SEFA without
public incident or protest, and the SEFA campaigns have
continued to run smoothly.
SEFA has remained undisturbea by the increase in the
number and diversity of participating charities and con-
tinues to prosper. Revenues have increased during these

years of growth, and the 1983 SEFA campaign raised over
$1,700,000 from payroll deductions.* In New York City,
in 1983, the first year Respondent legal defense funds par-
ticipated in SEF A, payroll deductions increased by 45.8%
over the previous year. The overall increase for SEFA in
1983, which saw considerable growth in the kinds of or-
ganizations participating, was 19.3%.
These experiences of New York State demonstrate that
charities can successfully solicit government workers with-
out the restrictions on First Amendment freedoms that the
Government defends as essential to assure the future of
this kind of campaign.
C. New York State, Which has Developed Specialized
Knowledge About the Workings of the Not-for-
Profit World Through Its Role Protecting Charitable
Interests, Finds No Support for the Government’s
Claim that Its Restrictions on the First Amend-
ment Rights of Charities are Reasonable.
The Government argues that the exclusion of legal de-
fense funds from CFC is reasonable because 1) legal de-
fense funds are free to solicit funds by other means and 2)
the benefits created by gifts to the included charities are
certain, whereas the benefits created by gifts to excluded
charities are not. Both of these arguments ignore the real-
ities of how charitable organizations raise funds.
* The figures on revenues from SEFA were supplied by the
Office of Audit and Control, State of New York.

1. Charitable Solicitations in the Workplace
Are A Particularly Effective Method for
Communicating A Message to Employees.
Workplace solicitation is an extremely efficient way to
collect donations from individuals. This kind of campaign
is largely run by volunteers from the government or corpo-
rate workforce and payroll departments. Potential donors
are assembled in one place and can be easily addressed as a
group. There is a camaraderie of soliciting and giving that
is often infectious (witness, e.g., the ‘‘thermometer’’ of con-
tributions prominently displayed). Constant reminders
are posted prominently. Payroll deductions make giving
relatively painless by spreading the donations over time
and eliminating even the minor nuisance (often forgotten)
of having to write a check.
New York’s experience confirms the efficacy of work-
place fund-raising. In New York, all charities that solicit
funds from the public must register with the Secretary of
State and file annual financial reports. N.Y. Exec. Law
§§ 171, 172(b) (McKinney 1982). These reports give de-
tailed information on fund-raising expenses and show the
comparable cost of various means of fund-raising. A re-
view of these reports shows that charities that rely heavily
on workplace solicitations are able to keep their fund-
raising costs low. United Way affiliates are the best ex-
ample. United Way of New York City, for example, re-
ceived in public support over $43,000,000 in 1984; 99% of
these funds came from federated appeals and only 6% of
these receipts went to fund-raising expenses. United Way
of Greater Rochester, which raised over $22,000,000 from
the public in 1984, derived 97% of this income from work-
ee ae ee
Ae. re oe
15
place solicitations and its fund-raising costs were 7% of
this income.*
Charities that are forced to use other methods of fund-
raising must devote considerably more of their income to
fund-raising and thus have proportionately less to support
their programs. The March of Dimes Birth Defect Founda-
tion, for example, which relies primarily on a combination
of direct mail, door-to-door solicitations, and special events,
spent 24% of its income from public support on fund-raising
in 1983. The Muscular Dystrophy Association, which uses
the same methods as the March of Dimes as well as tele-
thons and coin containers, spent 20% of income from public
support on fund-raising in 1983. And the American Kidney
Fund, which raised 85% of its receipts through direct mail
in 1983, had to apply 29% of its income from public support
to fund-raising.**
The Government minimizes the importance of work-
place solicitation of potential donors, although it concedes
that CFC is ‘‘more convenient and less costly’’ than other
methods of fund-raising. Pet. Br. at 44. In the world of
charitable fund-raising, however, convenience and cost are
critical. If the cost of communication is too high and the
means too difficult, charities are foreclosed from presenting
their message and perhaps from continuing to survive, for

they are directly dependent for their success on convincing
the public their cause is worthy.
The Government, in denying the efficacy of CFC as a
means of communication, further claims that because CFC
permits only a thirty-word description of each charity’s
work the harm to First Amendment rights from the exclu-
sion of any group is constitutionally insignificant. Pet. Br.
at 26-27. Comparably, a thirty-second television advertise-
ment is limited in the amount of information it imparts by
contrast, say, with a scholarly analysis in a professional
journal. However, although the form of the communica-
tion may have inherent limits, experience shows that its
efficiency in reaching an audience more than makes up for
the limitations. The brief message included in CFC lit-
erature is an unusually potent form of communication—in
some instances, tae charitable group’s only opportunity to
communicate with many in the audience. For that reason,
the First Amendment concerns here are significant.
2. The “Traditional” Charities the Government Has
Allowed to Participate in CFC Are Not Different
from the Excluded Charities by the Degree of
Certainty With Which Money Donated
Benefits Individuals.
Contrary to the Government’s assertion, money donated
to charities that it labels ‘‘traditional’’ and thus permits
to solicit through CFC does not necessarily find its way to
programs that aid individuals with any greater certainty
than money donated to other groups, such as legal defense
funds. For many reasons, a dollar donated to a ‘‘tradi-
tional’’ health and welfare organization may not reach in-
Vi
dividuals in need, whereas money donated to legal defense
funds may produce important benefits for large numbers
of people.
First, a gift to a charitable organization may not reach
the intended beneficiaries because it may be absorbed in
administration and fund-raising expenses. The costs of
administration, such as salaries, rent, telephone, travel and
professional fees, account for a sizable portion of the total
expenses of even well-managed, well-established charities.
Reports filed with the New York Secretary of State provide
some idea of the amounts devoted to administration costs
by charities, including charities admitted to CFC. Thus,
American Cancer Society, cited by the Government as a
typical ‘‘traditional’’ charity serving the sick and the
needy, Pet. Br. at 35, reported in the latest report filed with
the Secretary of State that 7% of its total expenses were
for administrative expenses.* This included over two mil-
lion dollars in salaries for management personnel (exclud-
ing program staff) and over half a million dollars in ac-
counting fees. In addition to these administration costs,
charities must also finance fund-raising, which often ac-
counts for an even larger portion of yearly expenses. See
Section B 1, infra. When charities are not managed ef-
fectively and scrupulously, the amounts spent on adminis-
tration and fund-raising may be so high that virtually no
money is spent advancing a charity’s stated purposes, no
- matter how beneficent those purposes are.**
* Financial Report of the American Cancer Society for the fiscal
ry ae ve /83, filed with the Secretary of State of the State
of New York.
* Compilations of figures from reports filed with the New York
Secretary of State’s Office of Charities Registration show scores of
organizations soliciting funds for charity from the public devoting less
(footnote continued on next page)
18
Second, money donated to some of the charities that
the Government includes in its category of ‘‘traditional’’
health and welfare organizations may produce no immedi-
ate, tangible benefits simply because the charity’s work
entails risk-taking which may or may not produce useful
results. Organizations that sponsor research into cures
and therapies for dread diseases are a prime example of
charities that may, for valid reasons, fail to produce
tangible results. Some research organizations, such as the
March of Dimes, have made tremendous breakthroughs
that help large numbers of people; others struggle for
years with difficult and intractable problems and show little
evident progress in reaching concrete solutions. Despite
these risks, the Government includes groups that devote
their resources to medical research within the classi-
fication of ‘‘traditional’’ charities and permits them to
solicit through CFC.
By contrast, money given to legal defense funds to
litigate specific issues may well improve the lives of many,
often rapidly and dramatically. As the Court of Appeals
acknowledged, the work of Respondents, through the lit-
igation they have brought, has materially assisted a vast
number of people, primarily low-income blacks. Pet. App.
at 25a. Of course, some legal cases may end in defeat for
plaintiffs, just as some medical experiments may fail, but
where there is success the results can often reach a much
wider class of people and be felt for a longer period of time
(either through an injunction or a money judgment for a
class or, less directly, through the establishment of legal
than 10% of their yearly budgets to program expenses. Among
these are a substantial number of organizations the Government would
label “traditional” health and weliare charities, including organiza-
tions purportedly helping the disabled, fighting various physical dis-
orders, and assisting hospitals and old age homes.
r=

precedent) than is possible by distributing money or aid
directly to the needy on what is often a one-time basis.
Thus, the distinction the Government attempts to make
between gifts to established charities that will ‘‘certainly
aid the needy,’’ Pet. Br. at 36, and those to legal defense
funds where the public benefit is conjectural simply dis-
solves on close analysis. It is merely an ansubstantiated,
post hoc rationalization for the Government’s claim that
its arbitrary exclusion of legal defense funds is reasonable
and therefore constitutional.
Conclusion
For all these reasons, the State of New York, as amicus
curiae, urges this Court te affirm the ruling of the Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, holding that
the Government must permit legal defense fands to par-
ticipate in the Combined Federal Campaign.

WHAT IS THE STATE EMPLOYEES
FEDERATE APPEAL
The SEFA campaign is for employees of New
York State only. It brings together 75 United Way
agencies, 20 National Health Agencies, and 18 In-
ternational Service Agencies into a single, once-
a-year fundraising campaign.
The SEFA will be the only time State em-
ployees will be asked to give at the worksite dur-
Opportunity to support more than 100 human
health and welfare agencies with a single annua!
pledge — easily paid by payroll deduction.
WHY PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS?
Paying your pledge in weexiy or biweekly in-
stallments through the SEFA payroll deduction
plan allows you to be more generous than may be
possible if you had to give a one-time cash gift.
Your payroll deduction pledge will continue only
during the 12 month period beginning January 1,
1985, and will automatically terminate in the event
you are laid off or change jobs. You may cancel
your pledge at any time during the year by notify-
ing your payroll department in writing.
DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS
Designations are encouraged to reflect the
wishes of the employees making contributions. A
gift of undesignated funds will, to a great extent.
be shared among local service agencies.
