NFL pays no taxes?

So, you might won­der why an entire indus­try, that makes a lot of mon­ey is get­ting a break on its tax­es, when we obvi­ous­ly need to reform this mess that is our tax sit­u­a­tion.

Why is the NFL still considered a non-profit?

source.

The NFL has had a bad few months.

It turns out that defend­ing domes­tic abusers and refus­ing to change an unques­tion­ably racist team name is not accept­able in the 21st cen­tu­ry.

And now a move­ment is build­ing to cor­rect anoth­er ridicu­lous injus­tice per­pet­u­at­ed by the Nation­al Foot­ball League.

Sen. Maria Cantwell (D‑Wash.) just intro­duced a bill that would elim­i­nate the NFL’s ridicu­lous tax-exempt sta­tus—in response to its refusal to address the name of the Wash­ing­ton Red­skins.

The bill has the sup­port of trib­al lead­ers and thou­sands of Amer­i­cans who are tired of pay­ing more tax­es so that the NFL can con­tin­ue to be clas­si­fied as a non-prof­it.

Will you join us in sup­port­ing this bill, and final­ly revoke the NFL’s tax-exemp­tion?

PETITION TO U.S. SENATE: I urge you to sup­port Sen. Maria Cantwell’s bill to revoke the NFL’s tax exempt sta­tus. An orga­ni­za­tion that defends racism and domes­tic abuse does­n’t deserve any spe­cial priv­i­leges.
