Tax-exempt status: insurrection.The Corporation Tax Law, in modified conformity with federal law, provides an exemption from the taxes imposed by those laws for specified organizations. Existing law provides that tax-exempt status, under certain circumstances, may be suspended or revoked.Existing federal law defines various crimes against the established republican form of government, including treason, insurrection, and seditious conspiracy, as provided.This bill would authorize the Attorney General to make a finding that a tax-exempt organization has actively engaged in, or incited the active engagement in, acts or conspiracies defined as criminal under specified federal law, and likely to produce imminent violation of that federal law. The bill would require the Attorney General to notify the Franchise Tax Board of such a finding, and would state the existing authority of the Franchise Tax Board to revoke the tax-exempt status of the organization found to be in violation.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares the following:(a) California grants special status to nonprofit charitable organizations so that they may be exempt from paying state taxes. In addition, for certain nonprofit organizations, contributors may make donations that they may deduct for income tax purposes. These tax privileges, for both in-state and foreign nonprofits, are extended by the State of California, at the expense of its taxpayers, to support charitable organizations and the important work they do in our communities.(b) However, as the United States Supreme Court held in Bob Jones University v. United States (1983) 461 U.S. 574, entitlement to tax exemption depends on meeting certain common-law standards of charity, namely, that a nonprofit organization seeking tax-exempt status must serve a public purpose and not be contrary to established public policy.(c) The federal government has defined the crimes of treason (Section 2381 of Title 18 of the United States Code), misprision of treason (Section 2382 of Title 18 of the United States Code), insurrection (Section 2383 of Title 18 of the United States Code), seditious conspiracy (Section 2384 of Title 18 of the United States Code), advocating overthrow of the government (Section 2385 of Title 18 of the United States Code), and advocating mutiny by members of the United States military (Section 2387 of Title 18 of the United States Code).(d) It is the existing policy of the State of California, and within the authority of the Franchise Tax Board, to apply the same common law principles articulated in Bob Jones University v. United States (1983) 461 U.S. 574 to the granting of tax-exempt status under California law. (e) There is well-established procedure for exercising the authority clarified in this bill, including the procedure for investigating and remedying the misuse of funds by a charitable organization under the Supervision of Trustees and Fundraisers for Charitable Purposes Act at Article 7 (commencing with Section 12580) of Chapter 6 of Part 2 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code. (f) Consistent with this policy, the Legislature finds that the Franchise Tax Board has the authority under state law to revoke the exempt status of nonprofit organizations inciting or actively engaged in the offenses listed above in subdivision (c). SEC. 2. Section 23703.6 is added to the Revenue and Taxation Code, to read:23703.6.
