After the defeat of H.R. 9495 this week in a parliamentary procedure requiring a two-thirds majority, Republicans are already plotting a second attempt to push it through.
Congress is set to vote again on Monday, and we need to ensure they don’t have the votes to pass this dangerous bill.
As a reminder, here’s why H.R. 9495 is so dangerous:
🚩 Unchecked Power: Trump and his Treasury Department would have sweeping authority to label U.S. nonprofits as “terrorist-supporting organizations”—no oversight, no due process, just unilateral power.
🚩Political Targeting: Under this bill, nonprofits advocating for human rights, environmental protection, reproductive rights, and other critical issues could lose their tax-exempt status simply for opposing Trump’s Project 2025 agenda.
🚩Chilling Effect: This broad and vague authority could intimidate organizations and stifle advocacy work. Nonprofits would risk financial ruin just for standing up for our basic rights and freedoms.
