This bill poses a grave threat to free speech and democracy by granting the administration unchecked power to investigate and strip tax-exempt status from organizations critical of the government, effectively silencing dissent. Robust civic engagement and the ability to voice opposition are cornerstones of a healthy democracy. Enabling the administration to arbitrarily punish groups labelled as "terrorist-supporting" based on unilateral accusations, without due process or evidence, is a dangerous overreach that undermines fundamental rights. We cannot allow this administration to wield such authority to target political opponents and crush dissent. Preserving our liberties requires blocking this undemocratic legislation that jeopardizes the freedoms we hold dear. I urge you to vote no on H.R. 9495 to uphold constitutional protections and prevent the abuse of government power to stifle free expression.
