United Way of America (UWA) released a report showing the impact on charitable giving of a proposal that would allow people who do not itemize their federal income taxes (more than two-thirds of American taxpayers) to receive the same benefit for making contributions to charity as those who do itemize.
The CARE Act (Charity Aid, Recovery, and Empowerment Act) was recently re-introduced in the Senate by Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) and includes the non-itemizer provision. Similar House of Representatives legislation is expected to be re-introduced in the coming weeks.
