House Approves Controversial Bill Targeting Nonprofits Linked to Terrorism

The US House passed a bill granting the government power to strip non-profits of tax-exempt status if deemed to support terrorism, without requiring evidence. Critics argue it could suppress advocacy groups and be misused by Trump against political opponents. The bill, which combines this measure with tax relief for Americans imprisoned abroad, passed with a simple majority after failing to secure a two-thirds majority previously. Opponents warn it violates due process and could lead to authoritarian abuse.
