NYS Adopts New Nonprofit
Disclosure Rules

non profit

 

From Associations Now: In an effort to create more transparency in the electoral process, New York's Attorney General, Eric Schneiderman announced new regulations that require more extensive reporting of political spending by nonprofit groups registered in the state. 

 

Schneiderman recently adopted new regulations that require nonprofit groups, including 501(c)(4) social welfare organizations, to make more detailed disclosures of their political campaign activities. Effective immediately, nonprofits registered in New York are now required to report the percentage of their expenditures that go to federal, state, and local electioneering. Groups that spend at least $10,000 to influence state and local elections in New York will be required to file itemized schedules of expenses and contributions and those reports will be publicly available on the attorney general's website.
