Nonprofit organizations are under threat. The House of Representatives is slated to vote as soon as this week on a tax reconciliation package that includes several harmful provisions opposed by NCN that would, if enacted, threaten the nonprofit sector. The bill also includes a new deduction for charitable giving.
Your voice matters! Thanks to the effective advocacy of nonprofit organizations nationwide, House Republicans removed a provision from the tax bill that would have granted unprecedented authority to the Executive Branch to revoke nonprofit status from organizations without due process. Nonprofits warned that this provision would have allowed Administrations to target charitable organizations based on ideological grounds.
This is important progress in ensuring the tax bill doesn’t harm nonprofit organizations, and validation of our effective collective advocacy. NCN will remain vigilant in ensuring such harmful language isn’t added back as tax legislation moves towards enactment.
Action Alert
Nonprofits should contact their Republican Senators and Representatives and urge them to:
❌OPPOSE granting unprecedented authority to the Executive Branch to revoke nonprofit status from organizations without due process.
❌OPPOSE new or expanded taxes on nonprofit organizations, including foundations.
❌OPPOSE limits on charitable donations as a "pay for" for the bill.
✔️SUPPORT and EXPAND tax incentives for charitable giving.
