Please call your Representative ASAP to urge them to vote no on H.R. 9495. You can find the DC # for your Rep here: https://www.house.gov/representatives

This tax relief for American hostages - a noble cause - should not come at the expense of jeopardizing nonprofit operations and democratic values. These provisions should be separated into their own bill that doesn’t include the unchecked harm to nonprofits. (4/6)

H.R. 9495 has been paired with a provision that would provide tax relief to American hostages held by terror groups and other Americans unjustly imprisoned abroad, likely a ploy to push it through with as little opposition as possible. (3/6)

Even worse, this can happen without evidence, intentional links, or any requirement to disclose the reasons for the designation. The lack of due process and accountability leaves nonprofits defenseless against vague and potentially politically motivated accusations.
