Charities Warned of 'a Tsunami' Over Tax Issues - Government & Politics Watch - The Chronicle of Philanthropy- Connecting the nonprofit world with news, jobs, and ideas

Charities Warned of 'a Tsunami' Over Tax Issues - Government & Politics Watch - The Chronicle of Philanthropy- Connecting the nonprofit world with news, jobs, and ideas: "Nonprofits should pay more attention to the questions that federal policy makers are asking about the tax breaks that benefit charities, says Diana Aviv, president of Independent Sector, the coalition of charities and foundations.

Partly because of budget pressures, both President Obama and Congress are conducting an “extensive look at the sector the likes of which I don’t think we’ve seen in 50 years,” Ms. Aviv said in an interview with The Chronicle. “And the biggest danger of all of this is that nobody’s paying attention.”"
