We hope you enjoy our posts, and find them to be informative and enjoyable. For this post, however, we have to deviate from our usual routine.
This one is serious. The dueling House and Senate tax reform bills being fast-tracked through Congress are complex and differ in many key respects, but they have one important thing in common: both are harmful for New Jersey charities and all of us who rely on them for programs, services, protection, and well-being. Unless dramatic changes are made, both bills would have a devastating impact on nonprofits and the communities they serve. We're not only concerned about the youth and young adults we serve here at GlassRoots, but for the thousands served by our colleagues by NJ's 30,000 charitable nonprofit organizations, including wellness, hunger prevention, domestic violence and other significant programs. We do not want to dive into partisan politics. We do, however, ask you to consider if this is the outcome you desire. If not, take three minutes as soon as you finish reading this plea to pick up the phone and call your Senators (202-224-3121) to tell them to vote NO on the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” bill and start over.
