No Tax Exemptions For Terror Act

Full Title:
No Tax Exemptions For Terror Act

Summary#

This bill says the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and any other organization found to have ties to terrorism shall not be treated as described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The rule would apply to taxable years ending after the date the bill becomes law. The bill was introduced in the House and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.

What it means for you#

The bill targets CAIR by name and would also apply to other groups "found to have ties to terrorism." If passed, those organizations would no longer be treated under section 501(c)(3), which changes their federal tax treatment. No publicly available information explains how a group would be officially "found to have ties to terrorism" or the process for making that determination.
