Thank you for making 2021 happen! TNPA Year-in-Review

On March 20, The Nonprofit Alliance (TNPA) had another of its Capitol Hill Days. It was fast-paced, with participants meeting with eight Senate offices, including meetings with Senators James Lankford (R-OK), the lead Senate Republican on S. 566, the Charitable Act (the Universal Charitable Deduction legislation) and Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV), a co-sponsor of the Charitable Act and a key supporter of the IRA Charitable Rollover Expansion legislation signed into law in December 2022.

Whether Congress will agree to funding for the Federal Government to avoid a government shutdown is again a close call. The current short-term funding measure will run out for some government agencies at midnight on Friday, March 1, and funding for other parts of the government will run out at midnight on Friday, March 8.

Congress avoided a government shutdown by approving short-term funding until early March. The temporary measure, signed into law by President Biden, will run until March 1 for some agencies and extends funding for other parts of the government until March 8. Thus, in roughly a month, Congress will face another funding challenge to keep the government open.
