The House voted to pass a bill allowing Trump to target groups seen as political enemies under the guise of combating terrorist-supporting organizations, raising concerns over its misuse.
The legislation superficially aims to terminate the tax-exempt status of terrorist-supporting organizations, but its true consequences extend beyond terrorism, threatening legal protections for nonprofits.
Existing federal laws already prevent nonprofits from aiding terrorists, and the IRS has mechanisms to revoke tax-exempt statuses without the severe due process violations proposed in the new bill.
This bill alters longstanding due process protections by allowing designation of terrorist-supporting organizations without prior audits or legal reviews, leading to potential abuse of power.
