The 1980s have witnessed a marked increase in the number of tax-exempt organizations created by politicians and individuals aspiring to political office. All of these organizations have attracted attention because public charities affiliated with political figures pose a paradox. On the one hand, they have the potential to both educate and promote the public good. On the other hand, due to their affiliation with an elected official or political aspirant, they have the potential to abuse the tax laws under which they operate. This book examines a range of organizations closely affiliated with federal politicians, and studies the uses and abuses of such an affiliation.
