Tax-exempt organizations like charities and nonprofits would be required to disclose any money they receive from foreign sources to the Internal Revenue Service. This transparency requirement would help the government track foreign funding flowing into American nonprofits and ensure these organizations are following tax rules. The change would affect thousands of charities, foundations, and other tax-exempt groups that currently operate without disclosing their international funding sources.
