<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>"The Million Mom March is a 501 (c)-3 corporation (Tax Exempt) and as such are FORBIDDEN to devote a substantial part of its activities for lobbying purposes.
Lobbying is defined as "Carrying on propaganda or otherwise attempting to influence legislation."
Lobbying is also defined as "Urging individuals to contact their legislators to propose, support, or oppose legislation"
The MMM website says "We the Mothers are calling on Congress to enact common sense legislation by Mother's Day 2000"
The toll free number to contact the IRS fraud hotline is 800-829-0433
Call them today and call them often. The address for the MMM is PO Box 762 Washington, DC 20044 (The IRS will want to know when you call them).
If they lose their tax exempt status they will have to pay Federal Corporate Income tax, and their supporters will loose their deductions."
Maybe we can take some money out of their pockets.
Have fun,[/quote]
