Following Donald Trump's return to office and new executive orders targeting environmental regulations, climate-focused nonprofits face heightened uncertainty regarding their tax-exempt status. Organizations like the Center for Biological Diversity plan to sue if these threats materialize. The executive director has stated an intent to seek a temporary restraining order (TRO) to halt any damaging actions while legal challenges proceed. This pause could be crucial for nonprofits to maintain their operations and avoid devastation from losing funding, referencing past successful TROs against executive orders during Trump's first term.
For climate nonprofits suddenly staring down the barrel of financial and operational uncertainty, that pause could mean the difference between survival and collapse.
Executive Director Kieran Suckling didn't mince words, as reported by the Associated Press, vowing that the organization would pursue legal action against any executive move targeting their nonprofit status.
