Limiting Political Spending by Non-Profits and Increasing Donor Transparency.

This bill aims to restrict how much money certain non-profit organizations (501(c)(4) entities) can spend on political activities. If they spend more than 10% of their total funds on politics, they could lose their special tax status. Additionally, these organizations will be required to disclose donors who contribute $5,000 or more, increasing transparency in political funding.
