Senate Showdown: Stop the Nonprofit Nuke Bill Before It Strikes!
H.R. 9495 could turn nonprofits into sitting ducks, giving the Secretary of Treasury unchecked power to revoke their tax-exempt status. If passed, this bill could chill nonprofit activities and threaten their existence. Tell your senator to protect nonprofits and reject this dangerous expansion of executive…
Hot Take:
Well, it seems like the House of Representatives has decided to play a game of “How Low Can We Go?” with nonprofits. By passing H.R. 9495, they’ve essentially handed over the keys to the nonprofit kingdom to the Secretary of Treasury. And just like that, tax-exempt status could go poof without even a hint of due process. It’s like a magic show, but instead of a rabbit, they’re making your rights disappear. Yikes!
Key Points:
- The House passed H.R. 9495, allowing the Secretary of Treasury to strip tax-exempt status from nonprofits.
- This bill combines with another that prevents fines on hostages abroad, creating a legislative chimera.
- Nonprofits could be targeted without a chance to defend themselves or know the reasons.
- This bill could be weaponized against nonprofits of any political leaning.
- Over 350 organizations are opposing the bill, urging the Senate to reject it.
