Thank you to the Sunrise Movement for their very, very important endorsement.

You are leading this country in the fight against the existential crisis of climate change.

Together, we will win and save this planet for our kids and grandkids.

6. Oh Noes!11!

8. You're confusing 501 (c) (3) with 501 (c) (4)

The former is a non-profit organization (like ACLU and Planned Parenthood) the latter is one type of a PAC.

9. Planned Parenthood Action Fund is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit advocacy group that focuses on sex education

Planned Parenthood Action Fund is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit advocacy group that focuses on sex education policy and policies supporting legalized abortion. The group is the political advocacy arm of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, which provides healthcare and education services concerning sexual and reproductive health.

The name "American Civil Liberties Union" refers to a group of separate but affiliated entities that work towards the same goal. There are two national groups: a 501(c)(4) organization named the "American Civil Liberties Union" and a 501(c)(3) organization known as the "ACLU Foundation." Both organizations share the same office space in New York and provide funding for litigation and public awareness programs.[6] The difference between the two organizations exists in regard to their lobbying efforts. The ACLU website's description of the distinction reads as follows:[7]

“ The American Civil Liberties Union engages in legislative lobbying. As an organization that is eligible to receive contributions that are tax-deductible by the contributor, federal law limits the extent to which the ACLU Foundation may engage in lobbying activities. Therefore, most of the lobbying activity done by the ACLU and discussed in this Web site is done by the American Civil Liberties Union. By contrast, most of the ACLU's litigation and communication efforts described in this Web site are done by the ACLU Foundation.[4] ”

As the largest public interest law firm in the United States, the ACLU employs about 200 staff attorneys plus thousands of volunteer attorneys who handle approximately 6,000 cases annually. Since 1920, the ACLU has appeared before the U.S. Supreme Court more times than any other private entity. In addition to its state and federal litigation efforts, the ACLU lobbies Congress and works to educate the public on civil liberties issues.[1]

7. Now the sunrise movement will change their T-shirts and hats

to become some new movement to give a fresh endorsement to BS. Then we will again have dozens of OPs cheering it as though some new group has endorsed BS.
