Quiver AI Summary
Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) has requested an investigation from IRS Commissioner Billy Long into the nonprofit status of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR). Cotton cites CAIR’s alleged ties to terrorist organizations, including Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, as justification for his inquiry.
Cotton emphasized that “tax-exempt status is a privilege, not a right,” and called for scrutiny over whether CAIR’s operations align with its exempt purpose as a charitable organization.
In his letter, Cotton pointed to past evidence and public statements, including comments from CAIR’s national executive director, as indicators of the organization’s purported support for terrorism. He urges an immediate examination of CAIR’s compliance with the requirements for 501(c)(3) organizations.
