I would, first off, mention that the regulation does not mention donors. Secondly, I would like to point out that the ACLU itself said these requirements ``will pose insurmountable compliance issues that go beyond practicality and raise First Amendment concerns of the highest order.''

The inspector general said in his report that the IRS, one of the recommendations is the IRS provide guidance on how to measure political activity, not what constitutes political activity. So with those clarifications, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Brady), a member of the Ways and Means Committee.
