The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 135, aims to establish a working group tasked with studying the prohibition of nonprofit organizations that receive state funding from engaging in certain political or partisan activities. The bill outlines three key areas for the working group to focus on: effective methods to prevent these organizations from endorsing or opposing political ideologies, potential repercussions for violations (which may include the reduction or elimination of state funding or criminal liability), and the development of a process for reviewing claims of such activities.

The intent of the bill is to ensure that nonprofit organizations do not use state funds to engage in biased or partisan politics, thereby maintaining the integrity of the nonprofit sector. The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to facilitate the establishment of the working group and its objectives.
