Lobbying and 501(c)(3)'s

An article from onPhilanthropy provides information on how certain requirements included in the Honest Leadership and Open Government Act (HLOGA) effect 501(c)(3) groups. The article covers reporting requirements, gift rules, and much more. "Charitable and other section 501(c)(3) organizations are not exempt from federal lobbying laws, so it is vitally important that your organization understands its new obligations." And this article from Wiley Rein LLP details some issues that are likely to arise soon; "questions under the congressional gift rules about providing tickets to Members or staff to inaugural events and about sponsoring parties in honor of Members or staff coming to or leaving the Congress."
