Watchdog Group Lists Nonprofits That Supported Save America March

The watchdog group Documented reports that a number of nonprofits were listed on the March to Save America website as supporting Wednesday’s Save America March that led to the attack on Congress. The link to that website provided in the article no longer shows the list, but the article names eleven groups, including the following eight ones I have verified are tax-exempt nonprofits using the IRS Exempt Organization Search feature:

• Black Conservatives Fund (527) (federal PAC)

• Moms for America (501(c)(3)) (website appears to be down)

• Peaceably Gather (501(c)(3) if, as appears, its legal name is First Liberty Institute)

• Phyllis Schlafly Eagles (501(c)(3) if, as appears, its legal name is the Eagle Forum Education & Legal Defense Fund)

• Rule of Law Defense Fund (501(c)(4))

• Tea Party Patriots (501(c)(4))

• Turning Point Action (501(c)(4)) (lists March to Save America prominently on website)

• Women for America First (501(c)(4))

The article notes that the Rule of Law Defense Fund, which states on its website that it is “the public policy organization for issues relevant to the nation’s conservative attorneys general,” is the 501(c)(4) arm of the Republican Attorneys General Association.

So far only one of these groups (Women for America First) has posted on its website a statement condemning the violence.
