NONPROFITS: LAW, LOBBYING & THE LEGISLATIVE AGENDA

Does your organization lobby? Is it tax-exempt under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code? Do you have chapters, volunteers and others that lobby on your behalf? Do you know the difference between direct and grassroots lobbying?

If your organization is tax-exempt as a 501(c)(3) organization it is critical that your staff, managers and volunteers know and understand what lobbying is and how much of it they can do working for a tax-exempt organization. In this interactive workshop your staff will learn what is and is not considered lobbying by the IRS and how much of it they conduct. Bring your newsletters, briefing papers and other documents and learn what portions of them must be attributed to your lobbying budget, and what part may be considered simply educational. Walk away with a better understanding of how c3s can lobby without risking their tax-exempt status.
