Privacy for Donors

by · Published · Updated

The U.S. Supreme Court took up two civil cases for full review today. One of them involves privacy for donors to nonprofit organizations. Back in 1958, the Supreme Court decided that protection of donor lists was part of the constitutional freedom of association in NAACP v. Alabama. The case taken up today, First Choice Women’s Resource Centers v. Platkin, AG of NJ, involves procedural issues rather than the scope of the protection.
