A House committee advanced four bills aimed at reducing the influence of foreign and domestic money in U.S. politics to the full chamber.

On May 15, the House Ways and Means Committee recommended bills concerning where nonprofit organizations get their money, how they spend money on politics, and how they report to the IRS. The bills will now be considered by the House of Representatives, carrying the committee’s favorable recommendation.
