This week’s Navigator Update tracks a wave of federal, IRS, employment, and state developments reshaping nonprofit compliance and funding. The Office of Management and Budget’s proposed rewrite of the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR Part 200) would give federal agencies sweeping new termination and suspension powers over grants, with public comments due July 13. Florida’s new “domestic terrorist organization” law is already being used against a national civil rights group, raising due-process concerns for advocacy nonprofits nationwide. Nonprofit employers face converging deadlines on federal contractor DEI clauses, Form I-9 enforcement, and Temporary Protected Status reverification. IRS guidance clarifies expanded executive compensation excise tax exposure, while courts continue restoring canceled USDA grants and blocking a rule that threatened Public Service Loan Forgiveness. Florida and Indiana are advancing controversial “terrorist organization” designation laws targeting nonprofits, while other states advance donor-privacy, pay-transparency, and fundraising-platform reforms. Nonprofit leaders should prioritize funding contingency planning and compliance review now.
