Note to Capitol Hill: Save the Charitable Deduction!
ACR & coalition submit a petition to Senator Baucus
Today, a letter was sent by a coalition of organizations and foundations to Senator Max Baucus, the current chairman of the United States Senate Committee on Finance, to spare the charitable tax deduction. ACR joined this coalition with the aim of protecting the charitable deduction from future reductions as a policymakers look to it as a revenue raiser for expansions in government programs. The coalition includes the American Red Cross International, Council on Foundations and the United Way among others. We’ll keep you posted.
