The executive branch does not have the authority to punish organizations for championing ideas that do not align with the President’s agenda. To allow this level of overreach to go unchecked would mark a massive expansion of federal and presidential power, and set a dangerous precedent of using executive authority to punish ideological rivals or challengers—to the extent of labeling them as terrorists without proof just for disagreeing.
Let's urge major news channels to cover what's at stake!
We are reaching out to urge you to highlight President Trump’s recent attacks on nonprofits. To target, defund, and silence these groups solely because the President does not agree with their work is not only unjust and unconstitutional, but patently un-American.

Additionally, while these attacks target nonprofits, the ones who will ultimately suffer the most are the communities these groups serve. From environmental organizations, churches, and food banks to charities that focus on healthcare, housing, and education, nonprofit organizations champion a wide-sweeping range of causes and provide critical services to the American people. And despite their differences, they are united in a singular mission—to serve communities and better the lives of individuals across the country.
Please waste no time in reporting on the implications of this unconstitutional power grab and how it will impact the wellbeing of the American public. Thank you.
