On April 15, 2025, President Trump called for revoking Harvard University's tax-exempt status amidst concerns about redefining IRS qualifications for nonprofits. His executive order from March 7, 2025, threatens to limit federal loan forgiveness for nonprofits linked to activities deemed illegal. This includes those that support illegal immigration or violate state laws. The alarm over these changes has swept through the nonprofit sector, but it is crucial to note that revoking tax-exempt status cannot be done unilaterally by the executive branch.
The Trump administration's efforts to redefine 501c3 tax-exempt status could target organizations involved in environmental conservation and other social causes deemed illegal.
Despite the alarm in the nonprofit sector regarding tax exemptions and the prescriptive actions proposed, revoking these statuses via executive order lacks legal backing.
