Willie Gene Hector, petitioner pro se.

Before WIDENER, HALL, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:


1
Willie Gene Hector filed in this court a petition for review of the February 1995 Special Report to Congress prepared by the United States Sentencing Commission (the "Commission").  The report recommends, in part, that the Commission reconsider the present 100 to 1 crack to cocaine ratio contained in the guidelines.  United States Sentencing Commission, Guidelines Manual, Sec. 2D1.1 (Nov.1994).  This court is without jurisdiction to review the rule-making process of the Commission.  Washington Legal Found. v. United States Sentencing Comm'n, 17 F.3d 1446, 1450 (D.C.Cir.1994);  Andrade v. United States Sentencing Comm'n, 989 F.2d 308, 309 (9th Cir.1993).  Accordingly, we deny Hector's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the petition.  In light of this disposition, the Respondent's motion to hold the briefing schedule in abeyance is denied as moot.  We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DISMISSED.
