Market Watch - New data on Americans’ tax returns adds to the growing body of
evidence that charities are taking a hit as a result of Trump’s overhaul
of the tax system.Taxpayers have itemized $54 billion less in
charitable contributions so far this tax season compared to the previous
year, according to new IRS stats.
“The
amount is just jaw-dropping,” said Michel Nilsen, vice president of
communications and public policy at the Association of Fundraising
Professionals. “This is a really significant drop. This to me is a sign
that giving was hurt.”
Melania Trump, the wife of the Republican nominee Donald Trump, was paid
for 10 modeling jobs in the United States in 1996 before obtaining the
necessary documents to legally work in the country, the Associated Press
reported Friday.
