Nonprofit organizations under threat in US

Bill H.R. 9495  will hand the President powers to instruct the Secretary of the Treasury to revoke the 501(c)(3) nonprofit status of any organization found to "support terrorism", absent of any substantive investigation or evidence, and without oversight. 

Despite a narrow defeat last week, the bill will return before the House of Representatives this week, with a vote expected on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Congresspeople need to hear from voters in their districts today, telling them to reject the bill. 

This cartoon sums it up.
