Regards charitable solicitations

HB 184 amends state laws to clarify how charitable organizations, sales promotions, and solicitation professionals are defined and regulated. The bill expands the definition of a charitable organization to include groups that hold themselves out as serving public safety or other benevolent purposes, even if their contributions are not tax-deductible. It also updates definitions for terms like "professional solicitor" and "fund-raising counsel" to better distinguish between paid agents and volunteers or in-house staff. By refining these legal categories, the legislation aims to provide clearer rules for how charities and their partners operate when asking for donations or conducting fundraising events.
