NPQThe nonprofit sector is putting out an urgent call to action to all nonprofits and nonprofit workers. Our sector is under attack. HR 9495, up for a vote this week, would empower a Trump-appointed treasury secretary new powers to strip a nonprofit’s status; opponents fear spurious attacks on perceived ideological opposition.

Last week, HR 9495, a bill that would give the US secretary of the treasury the power to strip nonprofits of their tax-exempt status if unilaterally deemed to be a “terrorist-supporting” organization was defeated by House Democrats. This week, the bill is back to the US House of Representatives for a full vote.

Trump's nomination of Gaetz will be the clearest signal yet of whether GOP senators are ready to do his bidding on all sorts of issues.
If Trump can get 51 votes for Gaetz, he can get a Senate majority for just about anything — like cutting back Social Security.
Be warned.

In talking with so many people over the last three days, we all agree -- the first thing to do, after a brief self-care respite, is to build our safety network of everyone we know in our communities and how to get in contact with them easily and quickly. Don't just rely on social media, since we can't count on that in the future. For instance, the vulnerable may need medical and legal support going forward. And the benefits of a social support network couldn't be needed more than now.
The most traumatizing fact is that millions of Americans willingly and knowingly made the choice to vote for hatred and cruelty in this election. #trauma #depression

Federal #guncontrol legislation will not pass until Democrats hold the House, the Senate, and Executive branch. And no (as JD Vance put it) this is not a 'fact of life' in any sane country; rather, this is a fact of life that Republicans, gun manufacturers, and the NRA have allowed to be a tragic fact of life in the USA. It must change and we can do this in November. Every vote is critical. #VoteBlue #VoteBlue2024
