AI Summary

  • Requires charitable organizations and professional solicitors to specify "contributions" rather than general "solicitations" in registration requirements, and allows parent organizations with IRS group exemptions to file consolidated registrations for subordinate organizations.

  • Authorizes the Attorney General to require electronic submission of financial reports from professional solicitors and imposes a $100 initial fine plus $20 per day (capped at $1,000) for late filings, with copies required to be provided to relevant charitable organizations within 10 days.

  • Requires commercial co-venturers to provide final accounting to charitable organizations within 90 days of promotion completion and imposes administrative fines of up to $1,000 per violation plus up to $100 per day for violations, with authority to issue cease and desist orders.

  • Modifies annual financial reporting deadlines for charitable organizations, requiring electronic submission within 10 business days for those filing IRS Forms 990/990-EZ and by the 15th day of the fifth month for others, and eliminates the $10 filing fee for organizations with less than $25,000 in gross revenue.

  • Clarifies exemptions from registration requirements to include the Northwest Accreditation Commission and requires organizations seeking exemptions to submit applications for Attorney General approval rather than merely providing substantiation.
