If you work or volunteer for a nonprofit agency, the way you conduct business may be about to change dramatically.
This summer, Congress got its hands on a 116-page report outlining ways to better regulate nonprofits. The Senate Finance Committee has been toying with ways ensure nonprofits' accountability since October, and the report offered a wide variety of suggestions.
And although the suggestions were made by nonprofit agencies, some of them could be very hard to swallow if they become federal law.


(This is a soapbox I've been on before, but judging from the lack of attention this movement is getting in the national media, it's fair to say many people involved in nonprofits still don't know about this.)
