On the recordNovember 21, 2024
The Alliance of Global Justice, an Arizona-based, tax-exempt organization currently fiscally sponsors Samidoun, a group which was recently designated as a sham charity in financial support of terrorists--by what? The Biden Department of the Treasury. Despite this letter to the IRS, the Alliance still maintains its tax- exempt status in the United States. This letter, coupled with their recent designation as a financial supporter of terrorist organizations, demonstrates the need for H.R. 9495 and the risk of not passing this legislation. I would also point out that, as the prior speaker said that we should rip out the controversial legislation within this bill, that controversial piece of legislation passed this body by a vote of 382- 11. It doesn't sound too controversial to me. Mr. Speaker, I yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Kustoff).
