Senator Tom Coburn, author of the PRO Sports Act that would bar sports leagues making over $10 million a year from claiming nonprofit status, was our lone champion for quite some time. However we can now report that Senator Angus King has signed on as cosponsor of Coburn's bill, and Congressman Jason Chaffetz has agreed to present the companion bill in the House. Additionally, Congressman Dave Camp, Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, has proposed a new tax reform plan that incorporates language from the bipartisan PRO Sports Act that would strip the NFL of it's nonprofit status. The fact that the #1 tax writer in Congress has endorsed our issue makes clear that our elected officials are hearing us and we have an opportunity to effect change!
