The rule would provide the IRS detailed information on who is making donations to particular charities, Roberts said. The IRS has already threatened donors in groups that it doesnt like. I dont think we can trust them with a new source of data on donors. There also is no assurance that the agency will stop at this voluntary rule and move to make such reporting mandatory for all contributions and all charities. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
