Join us next week for a discussion about threats to nonprofit advocacy and donor privacy in the 2026 legislative session and beyond. events.zoom.us/ev/AtHaHh7JAQ…
When small nonprofits are forced to report information about their donors, and their donors' donors, and their donors' donors' donors, the basic act of compliance becomes a nightmare of complexity. unitedforprivacy.com/donor-d…
"Ironically, the proposal could increase corruption by making it more difficult for citizens to organize against powerful politicians and the interests already entrenched in Lansing," @HeatherLauer said. michigancapitolconfidential.…
When Americans want to change the world, they rarely do it alone. First, they find like-minded fellow citizens to amplify their voice.

In about two hours, I’ll be chatting with my colleagues Matt Nese and Alex Baiocco about their excellent analysis of the 2026 state legislative session for nonprofits and donors. Join us! events.zoom.us/ev/AtHaHh7JAQ…

I-194 won’t get money out of Montana politics. Wealthy donors and super PACs can still spend unlimited sums, while everyday Montanans lose the ability to pool their resources and speak out. This is a gift to the political elite. My op-ed in @bozchron.
