The Tax-Exempt Tussle: Trump’s Harvard Fight and the Nonprofit Fallout

The InsightBit podcast dives into American Oversight’s lawsuit against the Trump administration, alleging the IRS and Dept. of Education withheld records on Harvard’s tax-exempt status threats. We explore the economic stakes: nonprofit sector’s 5.6% GDP contribution, 12M jobs, and $557B in charitable giving at risk. Freezing $2.65B in Harvard funds could disrupt research and local economies. Conservatives see it as curbing “woke” institutions; progressives warn of authoritarian overreach. What’s next for nonprofits and IRS independence? Tune in for a deep dive into economic impacts and policy battles.
