U.S. PIRG | The Federation of State PIRGs In the wake of the Supreme Court's decision, the rules governing nonprofits' participation in political campaigns are more important than ever. We applaud the IRS's decision to address this problem head on, yet the initial proposal made by IRS missed the mark, and could cause real harm to the work of legitimate nonprofit organizations. We hope our comments to the IRS will encourage it to continue its important work to prevent abuse of the tax-exempt system by political operatives, while making improvements in the next round of drafting to encourage appropriate public engagement by nonprofits.
