The new GOP-led Congress will likely pass a bill targeting nonprofits. The results could be chilling

"H.R. 9495 would grant the secretary of the treasury the ability to strip nonprofit organizations of their tax-exempt status if they are deemed 'terrorist supporting organizations.'"

"Critics like Kia Hamadanchy describe the bill as a solution for which there is no problem, arguing the IRS already has a process for revoking tax-exempt status for nonprofits linked to terrorism."

"As Republicans control both chambers in the next Congress, the bill could pass on a party line vote and significantly impact the nonprofit sector."

"Jason Smith argued that H.R. 9495 is necessary to prevent the abuse of tax code that allegedly funds terrorism, emphasizing a growing willingness among Republicans to target political adversaries."
