The Nonprofit Data Project of the Program on Philanthropy and Social Innovation has been working on policy to improve nonprofit information and transparency. The House Ways and Means Committee recently marked up a series of bills focusing on the IRS, including a bill that requires electronic filing of the Form 990 and release of the information in a searchable, machine-readable format. The Program on Philanthropy and Social Innovation was quoted alongside tax administration watchdogs, small business lenders, and policy leaders on the benefits of the bills.
