House Passes Controversial Bill Targeting Nonprofits Amid Criticism
The US House of Representatives has passed HR 9495, a controversial bill allowing the treasury secretary to revoke a nonprofit's status if deemed a "terrorism-supporting" organization. The bill, which passed mostly along partisan lines, has sparked concern among nonprofits and civil rights groups, fearing it could be used for political retribution. The bill now moves to the Senate, where its future is uncertain, but it may resurface in 2025 under a Republican-controlled Congress and President Trump.
