# PDS Compliance
**PDS Compliance** is a campaign-finance compliance practice at **Athens,
Georgia**, identified in FEC filings only by its email domain `pdscompliance.com` and by
[[Paul Kilgore]]'s signature as treasurer. It crossed this vault's three-committee vendor-page threshold on
**2026-10-06**, when a fifth committee registered from the address.

All five name [[Paul Kilgore]] as treasurer. All five bank at **Classic City Bank**, 2365 W Broad St,
Athens GA, or give Athens as the committee address, or both.
## What the address does and does not establish
What it establishes: five federal committees — two joint-fundraising vehicles tied to sitting Republican
senators, two independent-expenditure super PACs, and one state-branded super PAC registered 28 days before
the election — share one office, one treasurer and one bank. Each one's Form 1 discloses its own address
and nothing about who else is at it.
What it does not establish: coordination, common funding, or common direction. Two of these committees are
legally forbidden to coordinate with the campaigns the other two raise money for. The standing caution from
this vault's 2026-09-18 sweep applies in full — see [[Paul Kilgore]]. A compliance firm is a services
business, and the interesting fact is structural rather than conspiratorial: **the firm sees all of it, and
no FEC form asks what the firm knows.**
## Open questions
- Whether PDS Compliance is a registered Georgia entity, and under what legal name. The vault has no
corporate record for it — only the email domain and the shared address.
- Whether `
[email protected]` implies the domain is used to originate committees rather than
merely to administer them. The Save Our Montana Form 1 lists **two** contact addresses, the second
being the generic `
[email protected]`.
- Total committee count at the address. The five above are the ones this vault has found; nothing suggests
they are all of them.
